Anatomically Correct Typhon

Please avoid the obvious jokes.

Now I know there are different versions of the Greek monster Typhon, so first I will try to describe its properties.

1. Incredibly large roughly 50-100 feet tall, although I believe some versions had it human-sized
2. Appears to take the form of a large storm or tornado. In other words if you looked at the creature you wouldn't think it was anything other than a tornado or cyclone although at other times it might coalesce in some manner to appear like a giant humanoid.

That is pretty much all I know regarding it. There may be other sources on the creature. Irregardless I am curious how such a thing might evolve or exist biologically. I know most sources say it was mountain sized in the stories but that is biologically unsustainable short of something machine augmented. So I am imagining something more on the scale of a dinosaur which is at least from a sheer mass standpoint sustainable in an ecosystem.
