The Tri-State tornado had a path of 219 miles long and 3/4 mile to 1 mile wide across 3 states and numerous mining towns.
short terms: rebuild houses Long term: community broke down/ damage environment is in the primary and secondary succession
it depends on the EF rating and how long a tornado lasts for . When there is an EF5 tornado the strongest type just about every building it touches is destroyed
The impact of a tornado can range from relatively minor damage, such as breaking windows and peeling roof tiles, to the complete destruction of entire neighborhoods. Homes and businesses can be destroyed. Power outages are common even in weak tornadoes. People in that path of a tornado may be killed or injured. In extreme cases the number injuries may overwhelm local emergency services. After a tornado passes, the community has to clean up, rebuild, and restore utilities. Some people, especially in small communities, may leave rather than rebuild. The local economy may suffer as local businesses have to rebuild or close for repairs. People may suffer from psychological trauma and long-term bodily injuries.
Long term impacts of tornadoes include the need to rebuild, economic losses, lasting effects of injuries and psychological trauma, and the destruction of trees, which can take decades to regrow.
The worst tornado on record, the Daulatpur-Saturia tornado that hit Bangladesh on April 26, 1989 was definitely more severe than a typical tornado. This tornado killed 1,300 and left 80,000 homeless. The damage path was 50 miles long, compared with a mile or two for a typical tornado, and was probably much larger and stronger than a typical tornado as well, though no details on that information are available. A typical tornado does not kill and is not strong enough to destroy most homes, though it may be different in Bangladesh where many homes are poorly built.
The problem with floods is that they destroy the surrounding habitats, they can wreck homes and lives and it takes long time to rebuild your lives after a full scale earthquake.
One organisation that helps tornado victims is the American Red Cross. They provide emergency relief and assistance to those affected by tornadoes, including immediate needs like shelter, food, and medical care. They also offer long-term support to help individuals and communities recover and rebuild after a tornado.
