and is widely known for creating the Fujita scale of tornado intensity and damage.
Nature's Whirlwinds Tornadoes are one of nature’s most violent storms, characterized by a twisting, funnel-shaped cloud.
Instead, after a tornado hits, the U.S. National Weather Service uses a rating system it adopted in 1973 called the Fujita Scale. Devised by meteorologist Theodore Fujita in 1970, the F-scale ...
He immersed himself in research on tornadoes and introduced the “Fujita Scale”, a six-point scale to classify degrees of tornado intensity.
