While I'm not from a tornado prone region, I don't think that's a tornado.
It might even be an edited image that's been compressed many times? The grey thing seems to cut into the top of the building in some areas. As if they took a photo of a closed waffle house and edited it to look scary for the joke. Or something on the window/foreground
Or it is indeed a very scary cloud and I'm glad I don't have to deal with that regularly
Looking closely, it rather does look like it's edited. The lines between the dark and light of the sky are quite abrupt, for example.
But at first glance, I had no trouble believing that to be a tornado. They come in MANY shapes and sizes.
Never seen one in person, but living in tornado alley all my life, I've seen more than enough pics and footage.
