Tornado damage is caused by wind and debris, with the first visible damage usually occurring to the roof, windows, and exterior walls. Earthquake damage is caused by shaking and distortion of the ground. Structures destroyed by earthquakes usually collapses where they stand while those destroyed by tornadoes are often at least partially blown away.

How is the damage on structures different for an earthquake from that of a tornado?

Minor tornado damage typically includes missing shingles, damaged siding, and downed gutters. Minor Earthquake damage would included cracks in walls. More severe tornado damage would include the removal of the roof and sometimes walls with some debris blown down wind. Earthquake damage might include partial collapse and/or damaged supports. In the very strongest of tornadoes structures can be torn clean off their foundations, and are sometimes carried significant distances. The very strongest of earthquakes will cause most structures to completely collapse, leaving behind piles of rubble.


Why is a tornado stronger than an earthquake?

Is a tornado or an earthquake stronger?

It depends on the size of the tornado and the how strong the earthquake is. Most earthquakes are small on average, so most of the time a tornado is stronger.
