How Tornadoes Get Rated After the Storm | Indianapolis News
Description
Ever wonder how tornadoes get rated—weak breeze or full-blown monster? The National Weather Service sends teams to investigate, analyzing radar data, debris patterns, and eyewitness accounts to determine if it was a tornado or straight-line winds. They use the Enhanced Fujita Scale to measure wind speed and destruction, blending science with human stories. Drones and social media videos help access hard-to-reach damage zones. If you’ve been affected by a storm, share your story—your report helps them better understand these powerful events.
