It doesn't really matter.
Although tornadoes tend to come out of the southwest, the direction of movement varies greatly. The strongest winds in a tornado are usually on its right side in the direction of the tornado's movement. However, since a tornado rotates and may have smaller circulations inside it, it is impossible to predict the wind direction for any given location. Violent winds may impact a structure from multiple directions in a short period of time.
