Rate the Damage (part ??)

Like most others here, it looks like an F3 to me.

F-3...vehicle prolly thrown, roofs gone but some exterior walls still up, several flimsy looking structures flattened, but doubt they were well constructed to start with.

F-3

I'd say high end F3. The fact that the car in the picture has been tossed some distance was the deciding factor in my rating. The damage to the house is questionable, since the quality of the construction is not certain. However, the fact that a car has been tossed some distance greater than 10 yds suggests to me that this tornado produced winds greater than 150 mph.

I'll say lower-end F3.

 

[Tony Laubach]

Yeah. definately thinking in the middle F-3 range.

Officially rated F4 by the ILN NWSFO. This was the tornado that passed through the Cincinatti suburbs on April 9, 1999
