  • @dragonridley IK there is no F6 on the scale!!! And it *was the first time in ten years that there had been a tornado EMERGANCY!!!

  • @TheWeatherchaser

    There is no F6 category. The scale maxes out at F5. The scale is actually based on damage,with F5 damage being total destruction. The windspeeds you see on the scale are rough estimates of the kind of winds needed to do each category's damage. And I don't think it was the 1st time in ten years in Moore also got hit in 1998.

  • This was a really dangerous tornado they had to make a tornado warning in Oklahoma for the 1st time in 10 years!!!!!!!! I would count this tornado as an F6 because it was just 1mph away from being a F6!
