Answer 1

From topix:

"Despite the destruction, Noel Isla, forecaster with the National Weather Service, said the gust was not a tornado.

"No, no tornadoes today," he said. "It's a cloudless sky."

The incident was likely caused by a dust devil, a small whirlwind common to the Inland Empire and likely to occur on hot days.

With Saturday's temperatures climbing into the 90s, the conditions provided perfect dust-devil weather.

Generally, dust devils are "not strong at all," Isla said."

A dust devil resembles a very, very weak tornado that occurs on a hot, clear day.  They can be quite strong, as this one appears to have been, but are usually short-lived.

Answer 2

tornado class 2
