Tornados cut a narrow swath, compared to a hurricane. I’d wager all the tornados in the last 100 years cause less total economic damage than a single hurricane

Tornados cut a narrow swath, compared to a hurricane. I’d wager all the tornados in the last 100 years cause less total economic damage than a single hurricane hitting a coastal city.

I do agree with your point. Though, if / as torando alley shifts eastward there could be some significant overlap between the areas that could be impacted by both torandos and hurricanes. I'm reminded of the tornados that hit Alabama last year.
