I think that the "tornado" is Neko.

What a beautiful song! There is so much build up to the chorus at the end. It finally happens and then the song ends. It leaves me wanting so much more. I noticed Neko Case has such an amazing way of keeping the listeners attention.

Side note The new album is so good. Listen to it on NPR. It's on their website until the release date, March 3rd.

In the Feb. 2009 issue of Paste she says that the tornado is, literally, a tornado. The song was influenced by a dream she had in which a tornado was in love with a boy.

The song was influenced by a dream, sure, but Neko is smart. She knows the song works as a metaphor for destructive obsession as well. The song works on many levels actually.
