The most intense part of a typhoon is the eye wall., just outside the eye.
The strongest winds in a tornado are typically on the right side of the tornado's path, known as the "right-front quadrant." This area can experience wind speeds exceeding 200 mph, making it the most dangerous part of the tornado.
The most destructive part of a tornado is typically the vortex, which is the rotating column of air that extends from the base of the tornado to the ground. The strongest winds and most intense damage occur within this rotating column.
That would be the tornado that destroyed the town of Sneed, Arkansas on April 10, 1929. It is the only known F5 tornado to have hit Arkansas.
The calmest part of a tornado is the center or "eye" of the storm. It is characterized by light wind and possibly even clear skies, providing a brief respite before the destructive winds of the tornado return as it moves on.
The strongest tornado to hit Louisiana on record occurred on February 21, 1971, in Orleans Parish. This F4 tornado had wind speeds estimated between 207-260 mph, causing significant damage and sadly resulting in 5 fatalities.
The main part of the circulation of a tornado when the strongest winds occur is called the core.
The strongest winds in a tornado are typically on the right side of the tornado's path, known as the "right-front quadrant." This area can experience wind speeds exceeding 200 mph, making it the most dangerous part of the tornado.
The Greensburg tornado was an EF5, the strongest category of tornado.

It depends on the tornado. In most tornadoes the strongest winds are near the center. In multivortex tornadoes, however, the strongest winds are in the subvorticies, which are almost like smaller tornadoes within a larger one.
No, the eye of a tornado is not safe. While it may appear calm, the most dangerous part of a tornado is the surrounding eyewall, where the strongest winds and most intense damage occur. It is not advisable to seek shelter in the eye of a tornado.
It depends on the tornado. If it is a single vortex tornado the winds near at the edge of the core will be the fastest. However, many of the strongest tornadoes are multivortex, meaning that they have smaller vorticies (almost like mini tornadoes) inside the main vortex. In a multivortex tornado the fastest winds are within these subvortices.
Both are, but it is probably more likely with a tornado.
No, the eye of a tornado is actually the calmest part, with clear skies and no precipitation. The most dangerous part of a tornado is the wall cloud and the tornado itself, where the strongest winds and most damage occur.
