Tornado intensity refers to the strength of a tornado, which is typically measured using the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale. This scale categorizes tornadoes based on the estimated wind speeds and the resulting damage to buildings and vegetation. The EF scale ranges from EF0 to EF5: - **EF0**: Wind speeds of 65-85 mph (105-137 km/h); minor damage, such as broken branches and damaged signs.
