EF3
now. i'm going to try to keep this friendly.
lets say there is ONE picture of a house completely collapsed on itself.
on the left side, is the wind speed measurement of 220. an F-scale rating of 4.
on the right side of the picture is the estimated windspeed of 160. and an EF rating of 3.
this is how the scales work. the same damage has 2 wind speed estimates based on the damage. the old scale was flawed in that it doesnt take near as high of a gust to cause certain damage as previously thought. this is why a new scale was needed.
am i going crazy or do i make perfect sense?
