Tornado strength is measured using the Enhanced Fujita (EF) Scale, which ranges from EF0 (weakest) to EF5 (strongest). A more powerful tornado—like an EF4 or EF5—has incredibly destructive winds that can exceed 200 miles per hour and cause catastrophic damage. They're rare but devastating.

Interestingly, some researchers are examining whether climate change may be influencing tornado patterns—shifting their frequency, intensity, or even the regions they impact.
