List of F5 and EF5 tornadoes

The state of Oklahoma has had the most rated EF5 tornadoes on this list with 55.

Among the most violent known meteorological events are tornadoes. Each year, more than 2,000 tornadoes occur worldwide, with the vast majority occurring in the United States and Europe. In order to assess the intensity of these events, meteorologist Ted Fujita devised a method to estimate maximum winds within the storm based on damage caused; this became known as the Fujita scale. At the top end of the scale, which ranks from 0 to 5, are F5 tornadoes. These storms were estimated to have had winds in excess of 261 mph (420 km/h). Following two particularly devastating tornadoes in 1997 and 1999, engineers questioned the reliability of the scale. Ultimately, a new scale was devised that took into account 28 different damage indicators; this became known as the Enhanced Fujita scale. With building designs taken more into account, winds in an EF5 tornado were estimated to be in excess of 200 mph (320 km/h).

In 2011, a rewrite of the Enhanced Fujita Scale took place which allowed for recorded wind non-conventional damage indicators to factor into a tornado's rating. Consequently, subsequent years saw an increase in the number of officially rated EF5 tornadoes. Prior to the rewrite, on average less than one F5 or EF5 tornado was recorded per year; due to more inclusive rating systems, the average following the Enhanced Fujita scale rewrite increased to around 5.6 EF5 rated tornadoes per year. The 2018 Tornado season had the most F5/EF5 rated tornadoes with a staggering 54.

• Note to wiki users, events that occurred before/after 2007 but retain the original F0-F5 ratings will be included on this list for consistency.
• All tornadoes below have occurred from 2011 to 2041 so far.
• In a 30 year span, a total of 176 tornadoes have been rated EF5, out of the possible 215.
• 39 tornadoes on the list have been rated under EF5, though it it possible that the tornado reached EF5 intensity.
• A total of 30 states on this list have have an EF5 rated tornado cause damage in the state. Oklahoma has the most with 55 and Colorado, Hawaii, Iowa, Louisiana, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, West Virginia and Wisconsin had the least with 1 officially rated EF5 tornado. An F5 occurred in Italy, Germany, England, Argentina and Brazil in 2018. France recorded 2 F5's in 2018. An additional F4/F5 possibly occurred in Bangladesh in 2022. A total of Three EF5s have occurred in Ontario: 2 in 2019 and 1 in 2031. 2 tornadoes in Norway were rated EF5 in 2019.

Table of events

2011-2019

A total of 96 EF5 rated tornadoes occurred in the 8 years of the updated scale. However, 28 tornadoes were rated under EF5 strength, but could have reached EF5 intensity. The decade saw so many F5 and EF5 tornadoes mostly because of the 2011, 2018, and 2019 tornado years. The 8 years saw an F5/EF5 in Italy, England, 2 in France, 2 in Canada, 2 in Norway, and 1 in Germany.

Officially and unofficially rated EF5 tornadoes prior to 2020

Day	Year	Location	Fatalities	Notes
April 27	2011	Hackleburg-Phil Campbell, Alabama	72	2011 Hackleburg–Phil Campbell, Alabama tornado – Numerous homes, some of which were large, well-built, and anchor-bolted were swept away. Debris from some obliterated homes was scattered and wind-rowed well away from the foundations. One home that was swept away had its concrete stemwalls sheared off at ground level. Vehicles were thrown at least 200 yd (183 m), and at least one large vehicle that was missing after the tornado was never located. Hundreds of trees were completely debarked and twisted, and in some cases were reduced only to stubs. Pavement was scoured from roads as well, a large industrial plant was leveled to the ground, and a restaurant that was swept away had a small portion of its foundation slab torn apart.
		Tuscaloosa, Alabama	64	2011 Tuscaloosa–Birmingham tornado – Upgraded from high-end EF4 rating to an EF5 on May 22. Many homes, a large section of an apartment building, and a clubhouse were swept away, these structures were either anchor bolted, had multiple interior walls destroyed, or surrounded by contextual damage consistent with an EF5 tornado. A manhole cover was removed from a drain and thrown into a ravine near the clubhouse. A 34-tonne (74,957 lb) railroad trestle support structure was thrown 100 ft (30 m) up a hill, and a 35.8-tonne (78,925 lb) coal car was thrown 391 ft (119 m) through the air.
		Smithville, Mississippi	23	2011 Smithville, Mississippi tornado – Numerous well-built, anchor-bolted brick homes were swept away, including one that had part of its concrete slab foundation pulled up and dislodged slightly. An SUV was thrown half a mile into the top of the town's water tower. In the most intense damage area, all plumbing and appliances at home-sites were "shredded or missing." Chip and tar pavement was torn from road, and a pickup truck that was thrown from one home was never recovered. A large brick funeral home was reduced to a bare slab, and extensive wind-rowing of debris occurred next to the foundation. Outside town, the ground was deeply scoured in an open field.  Additionally, numerous trees and low shrubbery were debarked and shredded.
		Philadelphia, Mississippi	3	2011 Philadelphia, Mississippi tornado – Rated EF5 based upon extreme ground scouring. The tornado dug a trench 2 ft (0.61 m) deep into a pasture, leaving nothing but large clumps of dirt and bare topsoil behind. A tied-down mobile home was lofted through the air and carried 300 yd (274 m), with no indication of contact with the ground. Several vehicles were tossed hundreds of yards and wrapped around trees. Pavement was scoured from roads as well, and extreme debarking and denuding of trees occurred, some of which were ripped out of the ground and thrown up to 20 yards away.
		Rainsville, Alabama	25	2011 Super Outbreak – Many homes were swept away, some of which had their concrete porches torn away and shattered, with debris strewn up to a mile away from the foundations in some cases. A few of the homes were bolted to their foundations. An 800-pound (363 kg) safe was ripped from its anchors and thrown 600 ft (183 m), and its door was ripped from its frame. Ground scouring occurred, and sidewalk pavement was pulled up. A pickup truck was tossed 250 yd (750 ft) and torn apart. An underground storm shelter had much of its dirt covering scoured away and was heaved slightly out of the ground, and pavement was scoured from roads. One well-built stone house was completely obliterated, and a stone pillar was ripped completely out of the ground at that residence, pulling up a section of house foundation in the process.
May 22		Joplin, Missouri	158	2011 Joplin tornado – Deadliest tornado in the United States since 1947. Many homes, business, and steel frame industrial buildings were swept away, and large vehicles including semi-trucks and buses were thrown hundreds of yards. A large multi-story hospital had its foundation and underpinning system so severely damaged that it was structurally compromised and had to be torn down. Reinforced concrete porches were deformed, lifted, and tossed, and 300-pound (136 kg) concrete parking stops anchored with rebar were ripped from parking lots and tossed well over 100 ft (30 m). Vehicles were thrown several blocks away from the residences where they originated, and a few were never recovered. Damage to driveways was noted at some residences as well. A large steel-reinforced concrete "step and floor structure" leading to one building was warped slightly and cracked. Ground and pavement scouring occurred, and heavy manhole covers were removed from roads as well. On June 10, 2013, an engineering study found no evidence of EF5 structural damage in Joplin due to the poor quality of construction of many buildings. However, the EF5 rating stood as the National Weather Service in Springfield, Missouri, stated that survey teams found only a very small area of EF5 structural damage (at and around the hospital) and that it could have easily been missed in the survey, and the EF5 rating was mainly based on large vehicles being thrown long distances, along with non-conventional, non-structural instances of damage, such as removal of manhole covers, pavement, concrete porches, driveways, and parking stops, and the presence of wind-rowed debris.

Many large trees in this area were shredded and debarked, a car was tossed and flipped onto its roof, and a gravel road was scoured and dug out to a depth of around 15 inches (13 cm). Five wooden power poles were snapped and thrown out into a field, and two vehicle axles from an unknown location were found nearby. Near the end of the path, large trees and a house sustained severe damage near Smolan.
