The winds in a tornado are actually fastest at the edge of the funnel. Withing that radius the tornado rotates as if it were a solid object, so wind is not as strong at the center as you might expect. The pressure at the center, however, is quite low. In some tornadoes a downdraft descends though the center in a process called vortex breakdown.
