May tornadoes not rated as stronger than EF3 for first time in decades
Fox News
May 2021 marked the first time in more than 70 years that the U.S. has not seen a tornado rated as stronger than an EF3 on the Enhanced Fujita (EF) Scale.
In a Twitter announcement detailing the extent of severe weather during the month, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) wrote that May reports were "below normal," though tornado reports were near the 10-year average. "May 2021 had the 8th fewest tornado watches since 1970," the agency said in a thread.More Related News
