EF0 is the most common intensity.
No, it is possible to measure the strength of a tornado, though direct measurements are rare. Most tornadoes have their strength estimated based on the severity of the damage they cause. Occasionally, though mobile Doppler can obtain wind measurements from a tornado. One tornado on May 24, 2011 was rated EF5 after such a radar indicated winds in excess of 210 mph.
The Fujita scale is also known as the 'F Scale' it measures the strength of a tornado on a scale of F-0 to F-5. F5 is the strongest and most damaging
by scale called the fujita scale or (enhanced fujita scale) to measure intensity or strength of a tornado based on the severity of damage.
A tornado typically loses strength when cold or dry air undercuts the thunderstorm updraft that drives it. This cuts off the supply of air that power the storm and, in turn, the tornado.
The highest strength rating a tornado can receive is EF5. Areas impacted by the full force of an EF5 tornado will experience total destruction. Well-built houses will be wiped clean of their foundations, and steel reinforced structures will be leveled. The lowest strength rating a tornado can receive is EF0. An EF0 tornado can peel shingles from roofs, break tree branches, and knock down a few trees. Some very weak structures may be destroyed.
There has never been an F6 tornado. F0 is the most common type.
No. Most homes do not. Tornado shelters are more common where tornadoes are more common.
Tornado in Missouri are most common in late spring.

The Enhanced Fujita Scale rates the strength of a Tornado by the damage it has caused!
The most common rating for a tornado is EF0, accounting for almost 60% of tornadoes in the U.S. The higher the rating, the less often it occurs.
Depending on the strength of the tornado most buildings will sustained some degree of damage. A very strong tornado will destroy most, if not all buildings in its path.
Tornado Alley is a region in the central United States where tornadoes are more frequent due to a combination of geographic and climatic factors. States in Tornado Alley include Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. This region experiences a higher number of powerful and destructive tornadoes compared to other parts of the country.
The most common cause of death in a tornado is being hit by debris.
what is a african symbol for strength?
A typical tornado is probably a strong EF0 or EF1.
There is no basis for comparison between the two. An iceberg's "strength" is its mass and hardness. A tornado's strength is its wind speed.
