There is no given amount of precipitation for a tornado. The tornado itself often forms in a rain free area of a thunderstorm.
The storm itself may range from a high-precipitation (HP) supercell, which produces extremely heavy rain to a low precipitation (LP) supercell, which produces little or no rain but may still produce large hail.
Tornadoes do not produce precipitation. Tornadoes are usually often accompanied by precipitation, but the amount is not related to the strength of the tornado.
No. Precipitation is water that falls from the sky in some form, such as rain, snow, or hail. A tornado is basically a violent wind storm. While tornadoes are usually accompanied by rain and often by hail, this precipitation is not directly related to the tornado itself.
Tornadoes themselves do not produce precipitation, but the storms that produce them usually do. Tornadoes are often accompanied by rain and hail.
The Joplin, Missouri tornado of 2011 was what is known as a rain-wrapped tornado, meaning it was surrounded by heavy rain. This rain obscured the tornado from view and may have contributed to the extremely high death toll.
Antarctica is the continent that has the lowest amount of precipitation within a year. The second lowest amount of precipitation annually is recorded by South America who averages .03 of an inch of rain.

yes
Mostly, around when tornadoes hit it hails. But it does vary too. From hail, to rain. However, the tornado itself does not produce the precipitation: the parent thunderstorm does. Often a tornado is found in a precipitation free area of a storm.

Often there is, though there is more often precipitation before a tornado. Whether or not their is depends on the structure of the storm system that produced the tornado.
Hurricanes produce very heavy rain. Heavy rain and hail often accompany tornadoes, but the tornado itself does not produce precipitation.
I think the total amount for precipitation is 382,000km
Tornadoes themselves do not produce precipitation, but the storms that produce them usually do. Tornadoes are often accompanied by rain and hail.
Tornadoes are a product of severe thunderstorms, which generally produce very heavy rain. The tornado itself usually forms in the updraft portion of a thunderstorm, so it is actually not unusual to have precipitation decrease or stop completely before the tornado hits.
No. Precipitation is water in some form (either liquid or frozen) falling from the sky. This may include rain, freezing rain, snow, sleet, graupel, or hail. A tornado does not meet this criterion. A tornado consists of a vortex in which air rapidly spirals inward and then upward. A tornado can be considered a type of whirlwind or wind storm.
Tornadoes are often accompanied by heavy rain, sometimes enough to cause flash flooding. They can also be accompanied by large, damaging hail. However, these do not necessarily hit at the same time as the tornado unless it is rain wrapped.
the amount of precipitation on the ground...inches of snow...cm of snow...
