Fujita refers to the Fujita Scale, which is a system of rating tornadoes bases on damage. It has six levels ranging from F0 at the weakest to F5 at the strongest. As of 2007 tornadoes in the U.S. are rated on the Enhanced Fujita Scale, a modified version of the scale meant to give more accurate ratings. It runs from EF0 to EF5.
The scale is named for its creator, Dr. Tetsuya Fujita, who made several important discoveries and innovations in the study of tornadoes.

What does enhanced fujita mean?
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.

What was the fujita scale measurement for Illinois?
The Fujita scale rates the intensity of tornadoes. It does not rate states. Tornadoes of all intensity levels on the Fujita scale, from F0 to F5, have ocurred in Illinois.

What percent of all tornadoes earn a violent ranking on the fujita scale?
Less than 1% of tornadoes earn a violent rating (F4 or F5) on the Fujita Scale. The same applies the the Enhanced Fujita scale with EF4 and EF5 tornadoes.

Are Enhanced Fujita Scale tornadoes more powerful than Fujota Scale tornadoes?
No. The tornadoes are the same strength. The Enhanced Fujita scale is just a more advanced way of analyzing the strength of a tornado.
