Sure. ICF houses will remain standing, but the roof is the weak link.
Sure minimizes damage.

Fully tornado proof cost a bit more but can be done.

Highly tornado resistant houses are very doable - housed that will
suffer minor damage in an F3, and remain structurally sound while
suffering damage in an F5.

Tornado PROOF buildings, which would suffer no dammage in an F5 are
possible, but not either financially feasible or cosmetically
acceptable to the average buyer.


CORE houses are 100% tornado PROOF.

Dig down to the core of the earth. Install an elevator shaft and
elevator. Then build your home directly in the earth's core. 100%
guaranteed that no tornado cyclone or hurricane will damage this home.

Also, As I noted 100% out of the realm of "financiallt feasible" for
most people
