Tornado damage indicators

Tornado damage indicators are specific signs that help assess the strength and intensity of a tornado based on the destruction it causes. They include observable effects on different structures and natural features, such as how trees are uprooted, buildings are damaged, or vehicles are moved. These indicators are categorized, often using the Enhanced Fujita Scale, which ranges from EF0 (light damage) to EF5 (incredible damage). By examining these indicators after a tornado, experts can estimate its wind speed and overall impact, aiding in understanding tornado behavior and improving safety measures.
