Good picture. F5 tornadoes are maybe 1, 2% of all tornadoes that happen. Most of them are F0-F1, maybe even F2.

They are fairly rare compared to how many tornadoes that actually are on the ground and ranked… Many storm chasers and those that study tornadoes spend quite a bit of their lives looking for one and may never see one…
