Enhanced Fujita Ratings Debate Thread

Underrated? Sure - I don’t know if it was unfairly underrated or if it was underrated just as a consequence of the scale’s confines, though. The tree damage from Robinson was really impressive. Egregiously underrated? Definitely not.
I actually do still think the Robinson survey was egregious, but not the usual reason of egregious. Any survey that involves missed DIs is automatically a bad one IMO, despite it being understandable why a lot of the homes went unsurveyed.
Obviously though, this isn’t a scenario where the weather office deliberately underrated the DIs that were surveyed.

Overall though, the March 31/April 1, 2023 tornado outbreak certainly had at the very least 3 violent tornadoes, and reasonably 5.
