Path length is how far a tornado travels. The average path length is 8 kilometers, the longest was just over 350 kilometers. The shortest was just over 2 meters.
Some people use the term "long" for what is more correctly the width, or diameter of a tornado.

Finally it could describe how tall the tornado is. Most tornadoes are 8 to 16 kilometers tall.
