They range from about 65 mph to about over 200mph with lower wind speeds being more common.
The upper limit is believed to be just over 300 mph.
That varies. If you are close enough to be in the area of the tornado's inflow then the wind will blow almost directly towards the tornado, perhaps a little to the right of that direction. In that case the wind direction will depend on where the tornado is relative to you. If you are beyond the inflow area for the tornado, then nothing about the wind direction would indicate the approaching tornado.
A tornado does both. The strong winds in a tornado rotate rapidly around a center, creating a low-pressure area that can suck in objects and debris from its surroundings while also blowing them around with great force.
Tornadoes typically form in severe thunderstorms when there is a significant change in wind speed and direction, known as wind shear. Wind speeds in a tornado can range from 65 mph to over 200 mph, with faster winds associated with more violent tornadoes.
No wind measurements were taken from the Wichita Falls tornado, so the actual wind speed is not known. The tornado was rated F4 based on the severity of the damage it caused, which suggests peak wind speeds in the range of 207-260 mph. However, recent evidence suggests that the original Fujita scale used to rate this tornado may overestimate the wind speeds needed to inflict F3 and higher damage, so winds may not have been quite so fast.

65 to about over 300mph often in the 70's and 80's of mph
The speed of the winds in a tornado is called the tornado's wind speed. It is usually measured using the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale, which categorizes tornadoes based on the estimated wind speed. The wind speed can vary greatly depending on the tornado's intensity, with stronger tornadoes having faster wind speeds.
A tornado IS wind- very fast winds spinning in a circle.
Yes. A tornado is essentially a very strong vortex of wind.
That varies. If you are close enough to be in the area of the tornado's inflow then the wind will blow almost directly towards the tornado, perhaps a little to the right of that direction.

The wind can blow in any direction.
it travels three times as fast as a comet
The moon has no atmosphere and therefore no wind.
depends on size of the tornado anywhere from 65 to over 300 mph.
A Tornado is swirly fast wind, a flood is rising water levels...
