Re: stormy day in the south
I was going to say, I guess I'm not good at judging tornadoes by pictures. I was going by size and not sure that matters? I looked up Fujita scale and EF2 is 111-135 mph and EF3 is 135-165 mph. They gave examples of typical damage expected with each level. EF2 can tear roofs off and destroy mobile homes and EF3 can tear a full story off a house, blow trains off of tracks, lift and throw cars, and debark trees! Not good. There must be some pretty bad damage where those hit. What's interesting is EF0 can be any strength storm that creates no damage, like one that occurs in an open field. So I guess damage plays a part as well as wind speed.
