Scenario Sensitivity (Tornado)
Tornado ranking which driver moves an outcome most, with an auto-generated sensitivity narrative.
Acme · FY26 sensitivity
$4.77M
base FY26 MRR · most sensitive to accountsActive
FY26 MRR is most sensitive to accountsActive — it swings $1.46M across the modeled range.
| Driver | Low | High | Swing |

Demo data is illustrative. Replace with your own typed data prop.
How it computes
One-at-a-time sensitivity: flex each driver low↔high, measure the outcome swing, rank widest-first.
swingᵢ = |f(driverᵢ = high) − f(driverᵢ = low)|, all other drivers held at baseAssumptions
- Drivers are varied independently — no joint moves.
- The outcome function is deterministic and side-effect-free.
- Each driver has just a low and a high, not a full range.
Honest about
- It's strictly one-factor-at-a-time: it cannot capture a scenario where two drivers move together (e.g. volume and price both fall).
- The hero number is the base-case outcome, not an expected value across scenarios.
- Zero-swing drivers are still listed, with ties preserving input order.
Use it with your data
Data contract
Passed via the data prop — an object: validated at runtime, so a bad shape degrades to the error state rather than crashing.

Static props
import { FpaScenarioTornado } from "@/components/blocks/fpa-scenario-tornado/fpa-scenario-tornado";
<FpaScenarioTornado data={myData} />Client fetch (SWR)
const { data, isLoading, error } = useSWR("/api/metric", fetcher);
// route isLoading/error through <ChartStates>, then:
<FpaScenarioTornado data={data} />Server component (RSC)
const data = await fetch(url, {
next: { revalidate: 3600 },
}).then((r) => r.json());
<FpaScenarioTornado data={data} />Map arbitrary rows
import { mapRows } from "@/lib/sextant/column-map";
const out = mapRows(rows, { /* contractKey: "yourColumn" */ }, dataSchema);
if (out.ok) <FpaScenarioTornado data={out.data} />;Make it yours
Every customization below is an optional prop — omit them all and you get the defaults shown above. Recolor, reformat, restyle, or drop the card chrome without forking the component.
Recolor or rename a series (increase, decrease)
<FpaScenarioTornado
series={{ increase: { color: "var(--chart-3)", label: "…" } }}
/>Format numbers (currency / locale)
const eur = new Intl.NumberFormat("de-DE", {
style: "currency",
currency: "EUR",
notation: "compact",
});
<FpaScenarioTornado valueFormatter={(n) => eur.format(n)} />Replace or hide the narrative
<FpaScenarioTornado narrative="Your own one-liner." />
// …or hide it entirely:
<FpaScenarioTornado narrative={false} />Restyle any region
<FpaScenarioTornado
className="max-w-xl"
classNames={{ body: "bg-muted/20" }}
/>Drop the card chrome (headless plot)
import { FpaScenarioTornadoPlot } from "@/components/blocks/fpa-scenario-tornado/fpa-scenario-tornado";
// Just the chart body — bring your own card/layout:
<FpaScenarioTornadoPlot data={data} config={config} />
