This sub-box generates a meteorological information box specifically targeted towards single tornadoes. The header changes depending on the highest tornado rating provided.

This template supports two scales: the [[Fujita scale]] (priority) and the [[TORRO scale]]. These can be provided using the {{para|fujita-scale}} and {{para|torro-scale}} parameters, respectively. The version of the Fujita scale changes depending on the value. For example, supplying {{para|fujita-scale|EF5}} will make the template automatically use the [[Enhanced Fujita scale]]. Likewise, supplying {{para|fujita-scale|IF5}} will make the template automatically use the [[International Fujita scale]]. The header category may be overridden with the {{para|category}} parameter; supply a [[Template:Storm colour|valid storm category ID]] to change it.

The {{para|basin}} parameter can also be used to change the units; set it to <code>atl</code> or <code>epac</code> to switch the default units. To avoid units entirely, you may choose to pass text into the related values (e.g. pass <code><nowiki>{{convert|142|mph|kmh|abbr=on}}</nowiki></code>{{para|winds}} or {{para|gusts}}), but this makes later maintenance difficult, and is not advised.

Unofficial scale ratings should be marked with {{para|unofficial|yes}} or, for specific scales only, {{para|unofficial-fujita|yes}} or {{para|unofficial-torro|yes}}.

This subbox relies on the meta-template [[Template:Infobox weather event/meteorology]].
