The spiritwood tornado has been….downgraded to EF2?
What? Something weird is happening here.

I'm assuming they haven't thrown in the ef3 damage on DAT

The tornado polygon for the whole thing is marked as EF2 only.

Most likely, because they mislabeled a DI.

Im beating a dead horse but it’s such a shame this dude was driven out of here due to some members acting like rapid dogs because someone dared to have a conservative take on tornado ratings.

Based on what I’ve seen, the guy just genuinely tries to be as objective as possible and actually points out mistakes regarding DAT. Just like what @buckeye05 said, such a potential valuable asset to this forum lost.

While it would be easy to start complaining about yet another extremely violent plains tornado being slapped with an EF3 rating they did say that the rating is pending further analysis due to “damage intensity.” I think it’s still viable for an upgrade unlike Grinnell, plevna, matador, etc.

Scientifically proven DI'S!!! If that is the case then the El Reno 2011 tornado deserved a mid EF4 rating according to today's standards. It is a bunch of crap even if it is preliminary.
