Rating on scale fujita or saffirsimpson?

The Fujita Scale rates tornadoes based on the damage they cause, ranging from F0 (light damage) to F5 (incredible damage). The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, on the other hand, categorizes hurricanes from Category 1 (minimal damage) to Category 5 (catastrophic damage) based primarily on sustained wind speeds. Both scales are essential for assessing the potential impact of severe weather events, with Fujita focusing on tornadoes and Saffir-Simpson on hurricanes. Each scale helps inform emergency response and public safety measures.
