Yes, there is a rating system for thunderstorms called the Enhanced Fujita Scale (EF-Scale) which rates the intensity of tornadoes spawned by thunderstorms. The scale ranges from EF0 (weakest) to EF5 (strongest). Additionally, the Storm Prediction Center issues severe storm watches and warnings based on the potential for severe thunderstorms to occur.


Can cold fronts bring violent thunderstorms?
