that says that 5 countries use it (The U.S., Canada, France, China, and Mongolia). This article says only two countries (The United States and Canada) use the scale. I have added a “needs update” tag and a “contradicts another article” tag for that reason. Please address this article and/or the EF

What is the T11 effects like? 'Incredible phenomena will occur'? A T11 tornado is a tornado with winds in excess of 290mph. So essentially, think of a particularly powerful F5/EF5 tornado. Storms such as the Hackleburg Tornado of 2011 may serve as an example of a T11 tornado and that storm leveled
414:
Since the destructive index of a wind is known to increase with the square of it's velocity, i.e., it follows the the same laws of kinetic energy as any moving object, we would predict that increasing a straight line wind from 300 to 450 mph would make it 2.25 times as destructive, not 1.5. And
432:
Although vortical winds do have more of an effect on surfaces such as structures and vegetation, the effect is chaotic and cannot be generically quantified as asserted in the article. It's unsourced as one would expect. It's also not really necessary to be added, and if it is mentioned, it's
406:
winds in a tight rotating circulation, such as a tornado, are generally 1.5 times more destructive than straight line winds of the same speed. For instance, a 300 mile per hour wind in a tight circulation will produce about the same amount of damage as a 450 mile per hour straight line

increasing the speed of any wind by the square root of 1.5 (a value of approximately 1.225) would be sufficient to increase it's destructiveness 1.5 times.

It seems biased towards the UK when most tornadoes occur in the US. Is the Torro Scale used more commonly in the UK than other places?
