There were no F5 or EF5 tornadoes in 2010. Some suspect that the Bowdle, South Dakota tornado of May 22 may have reached EF5 intensity. However, it did little damage as it moved over open country, and so could not be rated higher than EF4.
Not necessarily. Although F5 tornadoes tend to be very large, ratings are based on damage severity, not size. The largest tornado on record, the El Reno Oklahoma tornado of May 31, 2013, was rated EF3, and the record holder for several years was the F4 tornado that hit Hallam, Nebraska on May 22, 2004.
