Both scales assess the intensity of a tornado based on the severity of the damage it causes. The ratings on the Fuijta and Enhanced Fujita scale are equivalent. For example a tornado rated F2 on the Fujita scale would probably be rated EF2 on the Enhanced Fujita scale.
The Fujita and Enhanced Fujita scales assesses damage caused by a tornado to assign a rating.
The Enhanced Fujita scale ranges from EF0 to EF5.
Tornadoes are rated on the Fujita ("F") Scale, or, in the United States since 2007, the Enhanced Fujita ("EF") Scale. The Fujita scale goes from F0 to F5 and the Enhanced scale goes from EF0 to EF5. Hurricanes are rated on the Saffir-Simpson scale from category 1 to category 5.
The "F" in tornado classification scales, such as the Fujita scale or the Enhanced Fujita scale, stands for Dr. Tetsuya Theodore Fujita, a Japanese-American meteorologist known for his research on severe convective storms, tornadoes, and microbursts.
No. The tornadoes are the same strength. The Enhanced Fujita scale is just a more advanced way of analyzing the strength of a tornado.
EF means "Enhanced Fujita" referring to the scale that is used, called the Enhanced Fujita Scale.
The Enhanced Fujita scale is used to rate tornadoes.

The Enhanced Fujita scale is a system of rating tornadoes based on the severity of the damage they cause. Ratings range from EF0 for the weakest tornadoes to EF5 for the strongest. It is an upgraded (i.e. enhanced) version of the Fujita scale, a similar rating system created by Tetsuya Fujita in 1971.
No, The Enhanced Fujita scale is used to rate tornadoes. Hurricanes are rated on the Saffir-Simpson scale.
The Greensburg tornado was an EF5 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale, which is equivalent to an F5 on the original Fujita Scale.
