Best Answer

The winds in even a weak (EF0 or EF1) tornado are powerful, at least 65 mph (105 km/h) and up to 110 mph (177 km/h). This is enough to damage roofs, shatter winds, and topple trees. In intense tornadoes the winds become very violent with the very strongest exceeding 300 mph (480 km/h). Nothing can withstand such winds.
