Hurricanes > Tornadoes
Tornadoes last like an hour or so tops but hurricanes are devastating. A category 5 hurricane can get winds up to 150 miles an hour with gusts up to 200 miles and hour. I mean.. 150 MPH constant wind.. for about.. 4-5 hours?
Besides, tornadoes move too fast, hurricanes can be MAD slow and do more damage. They cover a bigger area
EDIT:
My area got hit by a Tropical Storm (< category 1 hurricane) and 4.5 million people lost power that day.
