Tornadoes have occurred since the dinosaurs and beyond. The first recorded tornado was, to my knowledge, was in Britain in 1091. The size was F4, and it destroyed the London Bridge, homes, and chapels. So, in conclusion, tornadoes were always known.

So most likely tornadoes have been occurring on earth for hundreds of millions of years.

That is, they have probably been around for at least a few hundred million years.
