It's highly variable. From being at a standstill to records of 60-70 mph.
depends on size of the tornado anywhere from 65 to over 300 mph.

The speed at which a tornado travels over land can vary significantly depending on factors like wind speed, terrain, and other atmospheric conditions. On average, tornadoes move at speeds of 30-70 miles per hour, but some have been recorded moving as fast as 70-80 mph or even faster.
A Tornado.
No. Cyclones and tornadoes are completely different phenomena.
It varies. The average tornado travels at 30-35 mph. However some tornadoes are stationary while others move at over 70 mph.
A tornado moves in a relatively narrow path on land
This most closely describes a tornado, though a tornado technically is not a cyclone.
The Enhanced Fujita scale puts the beginning of tornado winds at 65 mph. Doppler radar has detected winds in a tornado of just over 300 mph.
Yes, a waterspout can occasionally move over land if it forms over a body of water and then moves inland. As it moves over land, it is known as a tornado rather than a waterspout. Waterspouts are essentially tornadoes over water.
