In the second to last photograph, I posted you can see what appears to be a structure partially constructed out of concrete that is reinforced with rebar. Also I believe some of the damage photographs might show vegetation scouring.
Yeah was trying to figure out if the pic of the field 6th from the bottom shows ground scouring. I’d lean towards yes.
This is from Uruguay, a country in South America but anyways I do believe there have probably been more than several violent tornadoes in Bangladesh.
Whoops my bad I was reading posts too quickly lol. It's one of the few times I've seen horizontal vortices outside of the United States.
There is some memorable horizontal vortices in the EF3 tornado hit Foshan, China on October 4, 2015. I guess it is the only case that horizontal vortices is cameraed in tornadoes spawned by tropical cyclones?
Both the Chickasha and Goldsby tornadoes were at least as intense as Rainsville, based on unconventional DIs such as ground scouring and damage to vehicles. Even though OUN was hesitant to assign EF5 ratings based on structural damage, it should have taken into account the surrounding impacts as well as the quality of construction, rather than “hem and haw” based on the amount of debris left near the foundations. I think there is enough evidence to indicate that both tornadoes left DIs, contextual included, that indicated near-surface winds solidly in excess of ~175 kt (200 mph). There is no doubt in my mind that both of these tornadoes should have been rated EF5. In general OUN and a number of other offices tend to underestimate wind speeds in these high-end events.
I’m not sure if this is what you mean, but some of those close-ups of the 2019 Kaiyuan EF4 show some very intense rotation, especially in the last segment of this video.
