Tornadoes can produce much faster winds. Maximum hurricane winds are around 200 mph while maximum tornado winds are believed to be just over 300 mph. Though in many cases winds fall into the same range.
the fastest winds recorded in a hurricane were 190 mph in Hurricane Camille.
the wind speed was very fast to fast for scientists
In terms of wind speed, tornado and hurricane winds usually fall into the same range. Tornadoes are capable of producing stronger winds than hurricanes are, however. In terms of traveling speed, tornadoes generally move faster but, again, there is a good deal of overlap.
In terms of forward speed a tornado usually moves faster. The average tornado moves at 35 mph, sometimes faster than 60 mph. Hurricanes usually move at 10-20mph, rarely as high as 40 mph. In terms of wind speed a tornado can be much stronger The fastest wind recorded in a hurricane were 190 mph. The fastest winds recorded in a tornado were 302 mph.
The fastest wind speed ever recorded on earth was 302 mph. It was measured in an F5 tornado in the Oklahoma City area on May 3, 1999.
Of these, a tornado produces the fastest winds.
The fastest wind ever recorded on earth outside of a tornado or hurricane was a gust to 231 mph (372 km/h) at the summit of Mount Washington on April 12, 1934.
the fastest winds recorded in a hurricane were 190 mph in Hurricane Camille.

No. A tornado has the highest recorded wind speed. In excess of 300 mph.
The fastest winds on Earth are found in violent tornadoes. The current wind speed record is held by an F5 tornado that struck the Oklahoma City area on May 3, 1999 with winds as high as 302 mph.

Wind speed may be measured using an anemometer.
The fastest wind on earth occur in tornadoes, which have been known to have wind speeds in excess of 300 mph (480 km/h), far faster than anything a hurricane can produce.
No. The fastest speed a tornado has peen known to travel is 73 mph, about 1/10 the speed of sound. The fastest wind speed ever recorded in a tornado was 302 mph, still less than half the speed of sound.
