Tornadoes can pick up dust and debris from the ground as they travel, creating a dusty appearance. The strong winds within a tornado can lift dirt particles into the air, making them visible as swirling dust clouds.
In addition to dirt, tornadoes can pick up and carry a wide variety of materials such as debris, rocks, vegetation, and even small structures like tree branches, signs, and pieces of buildings. These materials can become dangerous projectiles as the tornado moves across the landscape.
Yes, in rare cases, tornadoes can pick up and move houses due to their strong winds and violent nature. However, most houses are typically anchored to their foundations and are designed to withstand certain wind speeds in tornado-prone areas to minimize this risk.
It is very rare for a tornado to pick up a person. Tornadoes can lift debris and objects, but due to their unpredictable nature and swift movement, it is unlikely for them to directly pick up a person. It is important to seek shelter immediately in a sturdy building or underground if a tornado is approaching.
Yes, tornadoes are capable of picking up large and heavy objects, including people, and causing serious injury or death. It is important to take shelter in a safe location during a tornado warning to avoid being picked up by the strong winds.

Yes An elephant can pick up a needle with its trunk
No. Though a very strong tornado might cause it to collapse.
That is extremely difficult to estimate and would depend on the size and strength of the tornado and what there is to pick up. A large, violent tornado moving through a developed area might be carrying many thousands of small objects.
An EF0 tornado can't pick up much of anything, so probably not.
