Generally not. Wind turbines were never meant for use in winds as strong as those found in hurricanes and tornadoes. They have some safeguards to prevent being damaged in high winds, but within limits. A strong enough tornado or hurricane could easily destroy a turbine.
During the operation of a wind turbine, the wind spins the blades of the turbine. Therefore, the energy is transferred into the turbine, which generates electricity. A generator is a machine that produces electrical energy from mechanical energy. And so as a result, the wind energy turns into mechanical energy and turns into electric energy. Does that help?
A wind turbine moves when the wind blows against its blades, causing them to rotate. The rotation of the blades drives a generator inside the turbine, converting the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy.
Debris appears to be "sucked in" to a tornado due to the strong inflow winds leading into the tornado's vortex. The low pressure inside the tornado combined with the high wind speeds can lift and carry debris into the storm. This creates the illusion of objects being pulled into the tornado.
When a wind turbine is working, mechanical energy is transferred from the wind to the turbine blades, causing them to rotate. This mechanical energy is then converted into electrical energy through the generator in the turbine, which can be used to power homes and businesses.
The Power Generated by a Wind Turbine entirely depends on the capacity of the turbine which is installed.. there are turbines ranging from 1 watt to 10 MW that can be installed in a wind farm The installation of the turbine depends on the Wind Potential of the area.

The wind of a tornado are in a much smaller area, usually under a mile wide. A hurricane is hundreds of miles wide.
In terms of wind speed, tornado and hurricane winds usually fall into the same range. Tornadoes are capable of producing stronger winds than hurricanes are, however. In terms of traveling speed, tornadoes generally move faster but, again, there is a good deal of overlap.
Your policy will not specifically say it covers "hurricane" or "tornado" damage. If if covers wind, then your loss would be covered.
The fastest wind ever recorded on earth outside of a tornado or hurricane was a gust to 231 mph (372 km/h) at the summit of Mount Washington on April 12, 1934.
No. A tornado has the highest recorded wind speed. In excess of 300 mph.
It could be any of a whirlwind, tornado, hurricane, cyclone, twister, vortex or dust devil.
Of these, a tornado produces the fastest winds.
Tornado is to hurricane. Both involve violent wind and weather conditions on a larger scale compared to rain and shower.
A tornado can happen when the wind spins in a circle, wind spins around near and during a thunderstorm, and when hot and cold air meet. Most tornadoes happen May - August, summer for most people. But be aware, tornadoes can happen any time, anywhere, and in any thunderstorm or hurricane

Safety hazards that may be encountered during a tornado include:Collapsing buildingsInjury from wind-driven debrisInjury from being carried away by the wind
