There are six ratings of tornadoes ranging from EF0 at the weakest to EF5 at the strongest. About 90 percent of tornadoes are rated EF0 or EF1. The higher the rating, the less often it occurs.
Other countries use similar ratings from F0 to F5, as the U.S. did until 2007. The same principle applies here as well.
