A cyclone can last on average for 9 days depending upon the forces of wind leading to the decay of the things. It typically effects an area of  typically 30–65 km (20–40 miles). They are characterized by rotating winds around an area of low pressure.

• A hurricane

It is a form of cyclone called a Tropical cyclone. It is characterized by heavy thunderstorms where winds circulate in a counterclockwise towards the center of earth. These vigorous winds destruct an area of 50 to 100 miles from the point of their origin. They can last from 12 to 24 hours depending upon the speed of wind.

• A thunderstorm

A thunderstorm is a weather event that can manifest itself in different forms like lightning, Thunder and strong wind, rain, snow. It is a broad term that covers many events like Tornadoes, Floods,Cloud-to-ground lightning and hailing. Depending upon intensity the damage path of a thunderstorm can be from few miles to hundreds of miles.

• A Tornado

A Tornado is a specific form of thunderstorm that are characterized by strong, rapidly rotating winds that damages a path from one to fifty miles. They last for less than ten minutes so we can say their duration is less than other deadly weather events.

Therefore, Tornado is best option.
