There are fire whirls which are sometimes called fire tornadoes even though they technically are not tornadoes. They are whirlwinds made of smoke and/or fire. If they do contain actual fire they could potentially cause an explosion if they came in contact with something explosive just as the case is with any fire.

What is the difference between a normal tornado and a fire tornado?
A normal tornado is a violently rotating column of air the descends from the rotating updraft of a thunderstorm. A fire tornado or firewhirl, which is technically not a tornado, is a vortex of smoke and/or flame that forms at ground level from the updraft of an intense fire. Firewhirls can potentially produce winds equivalent to an EF0 or EF1 tornado, but the main threat is their ability to spread a fire further.
How much damage can a fire tornado do?
A fire tornado's primary hazard is how fast it can spread fire. A fire tornado (more properly called a a firewhirl as it technically isn't a tornado) occurs when a massive fire, mostly a forest fire, slowly builds up heat. The warm air naturally goes upwards in a funnel shape, taking the flames with them. If you could imagine a fire tornado dancing above highly flammable treetops, you know the true dangers of them. They can spread a forest fire a lot quicker than normal.
