Love the lighting effect with the lightning strikes. and the environment is very well done. Though the mistake alot of people do with Tornado animations is that they make the tornado spin too fast. Yes the winds are strong, but there's still a wide area to covera. If you look at videos of tornadoes, they almost seem to spin slowly even though they have 300 to 500 km/h winds.
Most tornadoes actually have winds between 100 and 160 km/h. 300 to 500 km/h winds would be in the range of the strongest 1% of tornadoes. The rotation seems accurate to me for a small but strong tornado.
excellent job gentlemen. I have one question: how do you create this camera effect? I mean the shake effect...i tried with apllying a noise modifier to the camera but this didnt worked.

this tornado is realistic. But it should have more dust and the texture of the tornado itself doesn't looks like clouds...

the tornado looks more like smoke. i think real tornados look more diffuse and are more dynamic

could try blurring the edges of the tornado a little; seems a bit too "solid"
although that being said, it is still an excellent animation!

3D Studio Max with the Afterburn plugin for all the 3D stuff (warehouse, tornado, trailer, particles, etc)
After Effects for compositing
Photoshop to clean up the background image some.
