Draft:Criticism of the Fujita and Enhanced Fujita scales Metadata This file contains additional information, probably added from the digital camera or scanner used to create or digitize it.
The Fujita scale was adopted in most areas outside of the United Kingdom. [citation needed] On February 1, 2007, the Fujita scale was decommissioned, and the Enhanced Fujita Scale was introduced in the United States. [7] The new scale more accurately matches wind speeds to the severity of damage caused by the tornado. [8]
The Enhanced Fujita scale (abbreviated as EF-Scale) is a scale that rates tornado intensity based on the severity of the damage they cause. It is used in some countries, including the United States and France. [ 1 ]
Here's how tornadoes are rated on the Enhanced Fujita scale and what those ratings mean.
The Enhanced Fujita scale measures a tornado's intensity on a scale of 1 to 5 based on its wind speed estimates and resulting damages.
The scale is intended to be analogous to the Fujita and Enhanced Fujita scales, while being more applicable internationally by accounting for factors such as differences in building codes. In 2018, the first draft version of the IF-scale, version 0.10 was published. This version was based on a 12-step rating scale.
The Enhanced Fujita scale is used predominantly in North America. Most of Europe, on the other hand, uses the TORRO tornado intensity scale (or T-Scale), which ranks tornado intensity between T0 and T11; F4/EF4 tornadoes are approximately equivalent to T8 to T9 on the T-Scale. Tornadoes rated IF4 on the International Fujita scale are also ...
