The 1924 Pilisvörösvár F4 tornado

edit

While redacting the [[List of tornadoes by width]], i found that the widest Hungarian tornado was suspected to be an F5, according to the ESSL, but rated as an F4 due to the estimated windspeeds of at least 343 km/h (213 mph). ESSL also provided several Hungarian sources, but i can't speak on Hungarian language. Алексеев Н. (talk) 15:21, 5 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Peshtigo fire

edit

I've heard of at least one source claim a fire whirl caused by the Peshtigo fire in 1871 had the intensity of an F5 tornado and it may warrant mention. I can't find the source at this moment, nor am I sure it strictly counts as a tornado, but given how similar the phenomena are it likely should at least be mentioned in the Possible F5/EF5 intensity section.
