DescriptionEF4 damage to the Rolling Fork, Mississippi Water tower.jpg |
English: The Rolling Fork, Mississippi water tower destroyed by a violent EF4 tornado on March 24, 2023. The damage to the water tower was preliminarily rated EF4 on the Enhanced Fujita scale. However, unlike normal damage points on the Enhanced Fujita scale, this EF4 location was not given an estimated windspeed. The National Weather Service damage survey team also added the following comment about this location: “Collapsed water tower, bent just above near base, with anchoring pulled from concrete. Tank contained water, caused crater on ground impact. Potentially compromised by flying debris.” Mathmatical analysis by Ethan Moriarty, a mechanical engineer, determined (with some assumptions) that winds up to 229 miles per hour would be needed to cause the damage to the water tower. |
