No question in my mind which I choose.

Yeah, but tornados go through a lot of unpopulated territory. Also, they are tiny compared to hurricanes. It's a fairly short season, and you can suss out the strips of land they generally plow through. You don't have to leave a 200 mile area but rather, just go to a basement. All in all, I think they are cheaper (time off, evacuation, pet boarding, generators etc. not needed) with a whole heck of a lot less chance of ever getting wrecked by one.

Edited to add, you actually get more like 20 minutes notice, as long as it is daytime.
