do tornadoes spin backwards in the southern hemishere?

I am guessing yes since a tornado is a low pressure system. Are there any studies that say tornadoes rotating one way are stronger than the other?

I know that one. Tornadoes spin counter clockwise in the southern hemisphere. In both hemispheres they're a few that spin backwards.

Isn't this a question that would be on the first grade level of "I'm smarter than a 5th grader"?
