@@KaileyB616 its worded as "at least ef3". Im pretty sure theyre not allowed to rate a tornado a 4 or 5 without an engineer. from my non-professional standpoint, i think it will definitely be rated higher.
I think it might be upgraded to an EF5 at parts of the track. I saw a photo of a vehicle lift that was ripped out of the concrete, the anchor bolts were still attached to the feet of the lift. And the bolts looked a little bent to me. Not folded completely sideways into L, but not straight. And there was I think 6 bolts per foot. It had to take a lot of force to pull this thing out and knock it over. They take the force of vehicles vertically all day long. The pros will have to survey it though. It could have been something slamming into it that caused it to come out of the concrete. Or its jist not made for horizontal forces. But then you gotta ask. What giant thing was blown that hard to rip this thing out of the ground. Ignore the engendering details for a second. What actually caused this to happen assuming it was anchored properly.
I think that a tornado should be rated based on a mixture of documented wind speed (the estimation), actual damage caused (the extent), and the overall communal impact (the severity). All these factors should be taken into account/consideration when determining the strength of a tornado; not just solely the severity/ type of damage caused.
The issue with this is there are a lot of tornadoes that occur in quick spin ups that are not seen on radar. They can happen between scans. How do you measure something you cannot see? Plus unless the tornado is right on top of it, the further you are from a radar the higher up in the cloud you are looking. It something like 40 miles you are 8-10 feet with observation. Tornadoes happen mainly in the bottom 0-3km range.
I just barely missed this tornado. I was passing through Iowa that day going to visit my son and this tornado had already struck. There was a detour and I think it had to do with tornado damage or an accident. So glad we missed it!
I think they need a better system. The Oolagah Ok. Tornado, April. 26, 1991, was two miles wide, but none of the damage was very intense. This one, doesn't appear to be more than 100 yds wide, but the damage looks like it went thru a blender. That lil sucker was INTENSE! Wide doesn't mean all that bad. Andover 1991 was the perfect merger of wide vs intensity. A rare thing.
I wouldn't say perfect merger... The Andover Tornado wasn't massive but it was insanely powerful, even for an F5. The level of windrowing and granulation has only been seen in Smithville or Mayfield.
So, it can be an EF-5 in the air, but an EF-4 on touchdown. The ground friction slows it down a tad, I suppose. But, nevertheless ... Still a very powerful cyclone. 🦅

I'm not sure if many public available radars have some of the filtering or mode tools available like the debris tracker. Although I think there are some things to look for if the radar has enough resolution and frame density in time-lapse mode. I'm not sure of the exact terminology, but I look for a "roller" in the return pattern. Think of it as the sign of a looser vortex that's on its side which moves horizontally with the storm. (Sometimes those are over a hundred miles long.) It's this barber pole banding or sometimes coil banding that moves with the weather pattern. If part of the rolling action is faster relative to the rest, and it gets tighter and kinked up into an S-shape, that's one of the spots to watch out for. I'd guess the speeds of circulation in the roller may be something like 40 to 100MPH aloft, but when it tightens up it's just like an ice skater doing a spin and pulling their arms in. It concentrates all that momentum and then doubles or triples what it starts with. Then if it's an option available through a website, you can do the storm-relative speed thing mentioned in the video to and using the contrast to get an idea of how strong it can be.

Too wide of an area to evacuate with too many people to move in too short of time. Of all the PDS watches I was ever under, the closest damaging tornado that I ever encountered was the 2013 Washington, Illinois tornado that struck ten miles east of my location. The best you can do is have a place of shelter, and keep an eye and ear open for approaching storms. If you follow your local weather service office's website and keep abreast of radar images and reports of severe weather, you can have an hour or more advance notice that something bad is heading your way. If you don't have a shelter, and know that a strong, damaging tornado is approaching your area, go to someone who does have a strong shelter or evacuate the area.
No, that's logistically impossible. But Tornado Emergencies should have been issued, especially for Greenfield. And they were not. There are also not enough tornado shelters and that's a massive understatement. And the ones that are in place are often in horrible condition. I'm a storm spotter for the NWS and I was in Cedar Rapids this day. We got the end of the severe weather event and sirens only went off once for 70+ winds. They were going for practically 3 minutes. That's it. This was after Greenfield. And emergency management decided 3 minutes was enough. The storm hit about 5 minutes later, after the sirens shut off. And they never came back on. Fortunately - we didn't get hit by a tornado.
@@jking8408 Surprisingly, when I drove through the area well after the storm, I was surprised at how narrow the path was. Media coverage made it look like a mile-wide tornado obliterated a large swath of the town. What I will never forget is the sound. I could hear it from ten miles away as the crow flies. I actually thought a tornado was coming at me. The roar sounded like the sound effect used for the thrusters of the original battlestar _Galactica._ This rumbling roar was combined with a buzzing/hissing sound that put me in mind of having your ear next to the hose end of a running vacuum cleaner. I was outside my basement looking to the southwest expecting to see power flashes and debris from an approaching tornado. But one never came. After the noise died down, I got on the local weather service website and learned of a destructive tornado passing through Tazewell county. I brought up the co-ordinates of the location given in the storm report, and it was Business 24 in Washington next to Hillcrest Golf.

The much easier and more practical solution would be to have more storm shelters. Tornado damage is dramatic when it happens, but it is exceedingly rare that any house even in the midwest gets hit by a tornado. Hard to justify the cost and most likely impractical nature of a house designed the way you suggest.
@@CaseyDarwin I agree, but less damage is better, homes should have both, should be concrete in some areas, portions could be underground, more curved surfaces using construction to break up the winds, turbines that generate electricity that can be stored. Shelters are great...but after the damage you have to deal with insurance companies. Nature has laws
Cinder Block walls that do not have steel rebar inside are not going to hold up to an F3 tornado. No house in the mid west should be sold with out a tornado shelter in it.
Or hear me out. We build massive boxes in the ground that when a tornado probability exceeds 5%, the houses are lowered underground a day in advance. Modern problems, modern solutions 😅
I get why people want to hear its a EF5 from a Meteorological and Scientic Standpoint, but in the end people were killed and hundreds upon hundreds more had their lives completely decimated. So the rating of strength is obsolete to them. Thoughts and Prayers for that Town.

Exactly what you feared ?
I get why people want to hear its a EF5 from a Meteorological and Scientic Standpoint, but in the end people were killed and hundreds upon hundreds more had their lives completely decimated. So the rating of strength is obsolete to them. Thoughts and Prayers for that Town.
Its always regular working people that suffer the most
THAT RADAR SUCKS RADAR SCOPE IS THE BEST BUT THERE VELOCITY RADAR IS GOOD
Geoengineering
Plutonium core based meteodrones use HIGH RADIATION GAMMA IMPULSE for provokation HUGE water condensed process in previosly still atmosphere...meansured, please), GAMMA LEVEL near typical "supercell" & understand this mess
@@alekverhovod So _that_ explains the Super Outbreak of 1974 and the Tri-state Tornado of 1925! Get. Back. On. Your. MEDS!
@@The_Fat_Controller.You can't expect these people to do actual research.
@@Trahzy maybe you should do some research weather modification act of 1976
@christinavance1128 Apparently they've been modifying weather since 1946, but the worst tornado was still 1925. Obviously they aren't doing a very good job.

TEHILLIM - PSALMS 148:7
7 ¶ HalleluJAHWEH from the earth, you dragons, and all deeps:
TEHILLIM - PSALMS 148:8
8 Fire, and hail; snow, and vapor; stormy wind fulfilling HIS Word:
YERMEYAH - JEREMIAH 23:19
19 Behold, a whirlwind of YHWH is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked.
YERMEYAH - JEREMIAH 23:20
20 The anger of YHWH shall not return, until HE have executed, and till HE have performed the thoughts of HIS heart: in the latter days you shall understand it perfectly.
SIRACH 39:28 There are ruachim (winds) that have been created for vengeance, and in their anger they scourge heavily; in the time of destruction they will pour out their strength and calm the wrath of their Maker.
SIRACH 39:29 Fire and hail and famine and pestilence, all these have been created for vengeance;
SIRACH 39:30 the teeth of wild beasts, and scorpions and vipers, and the sword that punishes the wicked to destruction;
SIRACH 39:31 They will rejoice in HIS commands, and be made ready on earth for their service, and when their times come they will not transgress HIS Word.
SIRACH 39:32 Therefore from the beginning I have been resolved, and thought upon these things, and left it in writing:
SIRACH 39:33 The works of YHWH are all tov, and HE will supply every needful thing in due season.
SIRACH 39:34 And no one can say, "This is worse than that," for all things shall all be well approved in their season.
SIRACH 39:35 So therefore praise you YHWH with your whole heart and voice, and bless the NAME of YHWH(Jahweh).
MIKAH - MICAH 3:10
10 They build up Zion with blood, and Yerusalem with injustice.
MIKAH - MICAH 3:12
12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Yerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the bamah of the forest.
