Some interesting tornado sites I recently discovered
I don’t know how these slipped by me before, but they are great stormchaser sites. Really incredible photography and videography.

New Enhanced Fujita Scale
The NOAA National Weather Service today announced plans to implement the Enhanced Fujita (EF) Scale to rate tornadoes to replace the original Fujita (F) Scale. The EF Scale will continue to rate tornadoes on a scale from zero to five, but ranges in wind speed will be more accurate with the improved rating scale.
