[edit] Article use

Normally, such would not be warranted for a single tornado with no deaths in a rural area, but this was an F5 so that is a special case. CrazyC83 19:19, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

That's precisely the reason why I thought it should be a separate article of its own! :D NorthernFire 21:26, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] F-5 or EF-5?

Shouldn't this tornado be rated EF-5 not F-5? --AquaTeen191 20:32, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

If you read the article carefully enough, you will notice that Canada has not officially adopted the Enhanced Fujita Scale system like the US has done. Yes, if a twister like that had occurred in the US, it'd be rated an EF5. But because it occurred in Canada, it should remain F5. NorthernFire 21:30, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, I see that now. --AquaTeen191 21:37, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
