I heard that the tornado near you was just classified as F2. It reads right here in the description danger to trailer parks, isolated mobile homes, out buildings, lawn furniture, and untethered vans

But it looks to not pose a serious threat to strip malls which really would have been an F3.

High power transmission lines, Tract homes and churches seem to come under F4.

And F5 - well pavement isn't even safe.

Alex, love those natural disasters, especially when no one gets hurt. Understand the insurance industry does too - just ask Allstate.

We here in tornado country resent the usurpation of our signature calamity by the uninitiated...
