Twister is really a nickname for tornado. Maybe add that to the question, or say 'or a 1996 movie'

True, it's informal, though hopefully that doesn't stop people getting the answer. Have added the movie reference to the clue.

Suriname isn't Latin though, it was a Dutch colony.

Interesting - we'd always assumed "Latin America" to be every country south of the US, rather than the countries where Spanish/Portuguese/French is spoken! (and some definitions do take our approach). We've dropped the "Latin" from the clue to be unambiguous.

Within the letters of the grid, I also found Serbia, Taiwan and Bosnia, but this did not help my score! I scored 12/22, thanks for the quiz!
