What is the average damage caused by a tornado?

Damage cost data for tornadoes is avilabale for the years 1996-2013. In this time period, there were about 22,500 tornadoes in the U.S. that caused a total of about $34 billion in damage (adjusted for inflation to 2014 values). This works out to an average damage cost of just over $1.5 million per tornado. Note, however, that this is higher than the cost of the typical tornado, as the average is skewed upward by rare but extremely costly tornadoes. For example about $10 billion of the total damage from this period was caused by 5 tornadoes. In other words, 0.02% of the tornadoes caused nearly 30% of the damage. If we remove these events from the data set, the average cost per tornado is reduced to between $1.0 million and $1.1 million.
