Donators can create lot of damage (8)

I believe the answer is:

tornados

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'create lot of damage' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'donators can' is the wordplay.
'can' indicates an anagram (I've seen 'canned' mean this (canned can mean drunk)).
'donators' is an anagram of 'TORNADOS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tornados that I've seen before include "Violent tropical thunderstorms" , "Whirlwinds" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
