Rebuilding Tips After Tornado Damage from Iowa Family

The Sabatuks rebuilt after a tornado destroying their home while living in a motel and later an apartment. They warn against hasty repairs, advise reviewing homeowner coverage, upgrading to replacement cost, and keeping a detailed inventory with videotape stored offsite. Insurance affected their premium slightly, with living-space additions increasing costs.

Revised scale to rate tornadoes takes effect this year

Government updates the Fujita Scale to use 28 damage indicators for estimating tornado intensity. An F-5 on the new scale requires winds at least 200 mph, aligning ratings with observed destruction and aiding construction design, while historical comparisons remain largely unchanged.
