If you mean a tornado with 30 mph winds, then no. It probably wouldn't even be considered a tornado. A 30 mph wind would move or overturn a few light objects that aren't tied down and maybe break off a few loose twigs from trees.
If you mean a tornado traveling at 30 mph, then yes. The forward traveling speed of a tornado does not correspond to its wind speed. A tornado moving at 30 mph could still pack winds over 200 mph and perhaps over 300 mph. A tornado with such winds could destroy entire neighborhoods fairly easily.

Why was the Tri-state Tornado so deadly?
The extreme deadliness of the Tri-State tornado was due to a combination of factors. First, it was an extremely violent tornado, maintaining F4 or F5 intensity along most of its path and had a wide swath of destruction, at times a mile wide. Second, it had a very long path, more than 200 miles long, so it covered a lot of ground, striking one town after another and so on. Third, it moved very fast, averaging more than 60 miles per hour, leaving little time for people to prepare. Fourth, the tornado's wide funnel accompanied by the low cloud base made it difficult to distinguish as a tornado, so many people did not realize the danger until it was too late. Finally, back in 1925 there was no advance warning system for tornadoes.

Do hurricanes hit harder than tornadoes?
The maximum winds of a hurricane are less than a tornado. However there are a lot of things to consider. (1) Hurricanes can last for days. (2) Hurricanes bring flooding from rain and tidal surge. (3) Hurricanes do a lot of wind damage. (4) A tornado might cover a path up to a mile wide and travel for many miles. A hurricane may cover several hundred miles wide and travel for thousands of miles. (5) One very big problem with hurricanes is that they may spawn many tornados which magnifies the damage.

How does climate change effect people and animals?
Did you hear about that tornado in indiana or that tsunami in japan? That effected a lot of people! Why because they weren't used to it... they weren't prepared for a climate change like a tsunami. It's not everyday that you have a tornado or a strom or a tsunami isn't it? It brought a lot of damage and killed a lot of animals! For example if you lived in Indiana then you weren't prepared for a tornado or a tsunami. That's when it came it damaged our food our houses and it killed a lot of people! You could've died! sources: I was in a tornado... It damaged my house and all of my valuables were gone done! I live in Indiana like right in the middle of where the tornado happened. My dad died and my sister was injured. Do you think that effected me? Why of course it did! I have no dad anymore (Why did i bring this up I am crying now!)
