    Folks, you can't say that a tornado was an EF-whatever by watching a chase video. That sort of thing is done after the fact by surveying the actual damage.

    Which is kinda dumb to rate it after, because you'd have a wide, fast monster that only did damage to a corn field and getting an EF2 rating.

    I have to be honest this is an intriguing question. But better if asked what amount of force would be required to oppose the cyclonic direction. I.E can sound waves or a massive opposing wind force of some kind displace the funnel?

    If it was a really big nuke, I'd guess the initial pressure wave might displace the ground circulation and weaken the tornado momentarily. Plus all the heat from the fireball would definitely have some type of effect. This is actually a really interesting question.

  • @madbarr

    A nuke would displace the entire storm because it would create an area such intense high pressure for miles. And high pressure kills storms.

    These tornadoes hit three counties. Mine was the last one. We saw a funnel move across our pasture about 1/2 mile west of us, thats from our front door. It didn't touch down all the way but did enough wind damage to knock trees over and tear up a fence. Thankfully us, our cattle, or neighbors were not hurt.

    Devastating damage and I'm so sorry for the loss of life. Praying for the families of those lost and for those fighting to recover. Also praying (and very proud of) the brace emergency personnel. True Heroes! Not to lose sight of the more important factor, but this was an important tornado for study. It had incredible storm structure with very clear updraft, downdraft, and inflow. There was great opportunity to study this and possibly learn better technology to save lives.

    This one is still preliminary an EF-3. This is the one that hit Canton. There is one that was rated preliminary as an EF-4, but that didn't cross I-20. But, honestly, that doesn't look like I-20 to me, like it says it is in the vid's description. If it's not I-20, then it could be the EF-4 (but the EF-4 rating is still preliminary).
