It killed people and inflicted major damage on Charleston and Mattoon as well as numerous other towns. The day with the most intense thunderstorms this Memorial Day weekend is likely to be Saturday , when an upper-level impulse racing across very unstable air will produce potentially severe storms from the Southern Plains into Virginia and North Carolina.

The greatest tornado threat is expected over and near eastern Oklahoma, where a cold front and dryline will interact with outflow from early-day storms that are likely to be moving across Kansas and Missouri. The latter complex could end up producing severe wind gusts over a long swath as it progresses across the mid-Mississippi Valley. Update: In its revised Day 2 outlook for Saturday, SPC has placed southern Missouri and northern Arkansas under a moderate risk, citing the potential for a "severe convective windstorm" across the area on Saturday afternoon and evening.

Setups like these sometimes produce derechoes, such as the " super derecho " that plowed across Saturday's region of concern on May 8, , with winds that topped mph.

The tornado was located near the south end of the storm, close to Jarrell, but had not yet reached the Double Creek Estates area. What if it happened today? Figure 5.

Tornadic destruction produced in Mattoon, Illinois, on May 26, Tornadoes could threaten on Saturday across Southern Plains The day with the most intense thunderstorms this Memorial Day weekend is likely to be Saturday , when an upper-level impulse racing across very unstable air will produce potentially severe storms from the Southern Plains into Virginia and North Carolina. From the damage, we can estimate the wind speeds.

The Enhanced Fujita Scale, which went into effect on February 1, , is an updated version of the original Fujita Scale that was developed by Ted Fujita with Allen Pearson, assigns a numerical rating from EF0 to EF5 to rate the damage intensity of tornadoes. The EF-Scale takes into account more variables than the original Fujita Scale F-Scale when assigning a wind speed rating to a tornado, incorporating 28 damage indicators such as building type, structures and trees. For each damage indicator, there are 8 degrees of damage ranging from the beginning of visible damage to complete destruction of the damage indicator.

Below are the levels of the new Enhanced Fujita Scale — in order of severity — and the damage descriptions as they relate to the original Fujita Tornado Damage Scale: [12] [13]. Damage: Light damage. Peels surface off some roofs; some damage to gutters or siding; branches broken off trees; shallow-rooted trees pushed over. Damage: Moderate damage. Roofs severely stripped; mobile homes overturned or badly damaged; loss of exterior doors; windows and other glass broken. Damage: Considerable damage. Roofs torn off well-constructed houses; foundations of frame homes shifted; mobile homes completely destroyed; large trees snapped or uprooted; light-object missiles generated; cars lifted off ground.

Damage: Severe damage. Entire stories of well-constructed houses destroyed; severe damage to large buildings such as shopping malls; trains overturned; trees debarked; heavy cars lifted off the ground and thrown; structures with weak foundations blown away some distance. Damage: Explosive damage.

For the original F-Scale, Fujita plotted hypothetical winds higher than F5. On the Enhanced F-scale, there is no such thing as "EF6" or higher. Damage--no matter how "incredible" or how strong the wind--maxes out at EF The Moore, OK tornado had doppler-indicated winds of mph. Even if the winds measured by portable Doppler radar 32 meters above ground level, roughly mph had been over mph, the tornado still would have been rated "only" F5, since that is the most intense possible damage level.
