A lightning bolt superheats the air to around 30,000°C — five times hotter than the Sun's surface — in a flash carrying hundreds of millions of volts. A violent tornado concentrates its power differently, with EF5 winds topping 480 km/h that can level houses in seconds. A blinding strike versus a spinning blade.
