The most severe tornadoes are those rated EF5 on the Enhanced Fujita scale. An EF5 tornado produces extremely powerful winds that virtually no structure can withstand. Even the strongest houses are wiped clean off their foundations. Asphalt can be peeled from roads and grass scoured from the ground. Such tornadoes are often very large and have been known to destroy entire neighborhoods and towns.
