The enhanced fujita scale for classifying tornado strength is based on: Multiple damage indicators and the degree of damage. Damage to structures inflicted by tornadoes can be caused by: A hook-shaped echo on a radar screen often indicates: The possible presence of a tornado- producing thunderstorms. The instrument that measures the speed at which precipitation is moving toward or away from an observer is: The signal detected by a doppler radar is: A single doppler radar is not able to: Measure the speed at which precipitation is moving parallel to the radar antenna. A doppler radar determines precipitation ____ by measuring changes in the____ of the reflected radiowave. On a doppler radar screen, a tornado vortex signature (tvs) appears as: Have rotating winds of less than 45 knots. A tornado-like event that forms over water is a: Light flashes darting upward from the tops of thunderstorms are called:
