How about something similar with only 80-150 mph winds, but 50-60 miles wide. That is the center of a hurricane.
As far as society breaking down, I saw the aftermath of some on St. Croix after Hurricane Hugo in 1989. Almost nothing was operating after. The only saving grace was US Federal response bringing in shiploads of food and water almost immediately.
Sustained winds reached 200 MPH over the entire island.
