There is the theoretical HyperCane which would form in superheated waters, i.e. in the event of a large asteroid hit in the ocean. Wind speeds would be in excess of 300 mph. Damage would be total. I believe an example of a hypercane is the Red Eye of Jupiter.



This is just a theory, mind you, based off of paleontological evidence.
