An EF0 tornado is the weakest classification on the Enhanced Fujita scale, which rates the intensity of tornadoes based on the damage they cause to structures and vegetation. EF0 tornadoes have estimated wind speeds of 65 to 85 mph (105 to 137 km/h). These tornadoes can produce minor damage, such as breaking tree branches, uprooting small trees, and damaging roofs and siding on buildings.
While even an EF0 tornado can be dangerous, they tend to be much less destructive compared to stronger tornadoes. An EF0 typically lasts for only a few minutes and has a relatively narrow path of damage. It’s important to note that even though these tornadoes are classified as weak, they still pose risks, particularly to those who may be caught outdoors.
