Event & radar context

MeteoRomania identifies a reported tornadic event in the Dălhăuți area on this date in the correspondence accompanying these radar products. This is not a separate confirmed tornado in Focșani city. Exact event timing, duration, damage rating and track were not provided. The Bârnova radar is about 150 km away, so its lowest beam samples well above the ground. Missing scans and two missing reflectivity products remain visible as gaps; no observations are fabricated.

Interpreting the rating

F, EF and IF are different damage-rating scales. Original source labels are preserved. Badge colours group the numerical categories for browsing; they do not imply identical wind thresholds. Radar products do not directly establish the damage rating.
