A fire devil or fire whirl is the more dangerous of the two, though they are both potentially deadly. Fire whirlds can produce wind speeds comparable to a tornado of moderate intensity, but are most dangerous for their ability to spread a fire quickly. The flames in a fire whirl burn hotter than in a normal flame.
Landspouts are technically tornadoes, but are generally not as strong as supercell-spawned tornadoes. Landspouts rarely exceed EF1 intensity. These tornadoes can occasionally kill, but are unlikely to harm someone who takes adequate shelter.
