You can't retroactively upgrade a tornado like that. We have reliable scientific data on tornados for 50 or 60 years and there has been nothing warranting an F6. I have a hard time believing any tornados in the years previous were stronger.


At least it is settled now that something that has failed to repeat itself in the last 50 years is not possible.

The monumental stupidity of this post is staggering.

Did you read my post?

I set aside an anomaly with regard to the Tri State tornado because that is the only tornado that doesn't fit a template as far as speed and track that we have seen since we have had measurables.

The Natchez tornado was probably an F5 wedge.

No reason to call me stupid.
