Wind speeds can vary greatly, from 40 miles per hour, all the way up to 300 miles per hour.
No. That would be a category 5 hurricane.

Yes. Winds in a tornado can, on rare occasions, produce winds over 300 mph. No other storm on earth can produce such winds.
No. 155 mph is close to the upper limit of category 4. Category 4 winds are in the range of 130 to 156 mph. Anything higher is a category 5.
a hurricane is a large spinning storm that has winds over 117 kilometers (73 miles) per hour
In order they are : tropical disturbance, tropical depression, tropical storm, sustained winds over 74 mph (hurricane/typhoon).
By definition it is a hurricane. A hurricane is a tropical cyclone with winds of 74 mph or more.
Wind speeds can vary greatly, from 40 miles per hour, all the way up to 300 miles per hour.
wind speeds over 74 miles per hour are possible. in a hurricane winds can get up to 100 miles an hour!
The weakest tornadoes have estimated winds of 65 mph (105 km/h); this is a low end EF0. The very strongest are believed to have winds just over 300 mph (480 km/h); this is a strong EF5. A tornado this strong is extremely rare. The most damage is caused by tornadoes rated EF3 and higher, with estimated winds over 135 mph (217 km/h).
No. That would be a category 5 hurricane.
There have been tornadoes in Madagascar that have caused serious damage. A tropical storm that originates over the Indian Ocean and winds get to 74 miles per hour are called cyclones. Hurricanes form over the Atlantic Ocean. Typhoons form over the Pacific Ocean.
Yes it has had winds over 100 miles an hour, tornadoes and floods.
In rare cases the winds in a tornado may exceed 300 miles per hour, though only small portions of the path would be affected by such extreme winds. The wind in most tornadoes will not be over 100 miles per hour.
If you mean wind speed, winds can range from 65 mph to over 300 mph, though most tornadoes have winds in the range of 65-85 mph. The most destructive tornadoes have winds over 135 mph. Winds over 200mph are extremely rare. The forwards traveling speed of a tornado can range from 0 mph to 73 mph (the record so far). The average tornado moves at 35 mph.
It is given its name before in even becomes a hurricane. Storms are named when they reach tropical storm status. Roughly half of all tropical storms become hurricanes.
