Event & radar context
One of three successive tornadoes produced by the same supercell over Heze on 5 July 2024. 19 real radar volumes with context before and after the event. RhoHV unavailable in the Puyang files. Timeline length is not tornado duration. Raw radial velocity may contain aliasing and is not storm-relative. No path has been inferred from the radar.
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.
