Yes. Generally speaking a tornado, even an F5, spares more people than it kills.
For example, on May 4, 2007 an EF5 tornado (essentially the same as an F5) destroyed 95% of Greensburg, Kansas, a town of about 1,600 people. Due to excellent warnings the death toll was limited to 11.
Yes. People have survived such encounters. However, most do not.
Yes. Though you are unlikely to survive if you don't take shelter, people have survived in buildings that have been struck by F5 and EF5 tornadoes. One advantage is that an F5 tornado only produces F5 damage in small portions of the overall path.
It is unlikely. There has never been a recorded F5 tornado in Colorado.
No. Florida has never recorded an F5 or EF5 tornado.
An F5 tornado does not form directly from an F1 tornado. Tornado intensity is determined by the Enhanced Fujita Scale based on wind speeds and damage. It is possible for a tornado to rapidly intensify due to various atmospheric conditions, leading to an increase in intensity from an F1 to an F5 tornado.
The most recent F5/EF5 tornado was the Moore, Oklahoma tornado of May 20, 2013.
The Waco tornado was an F5.
No. There has never been an F5 tornado recorded in Colorado. It has had a handful of F4 tornadoes.
Any tornado can be dangerous. An F5 tornado is extremely dangerous. Hit by the full force of an F5 tornado, even the strongest houses will be swept away. Many F5 tornadoes are quite large, capable of leveling whole neighborhoods and killing dozens in a matter of minutes.
To date there have been no F5 tornadoes in the Freedom area since 1950. If you are referring to the 1984 tornado, it was an F4.
F4 and F5 are the two strongest categories of tornado on the Fujita scale. A damage based scale which rates tornadoes from F0 to F5. An F4 tornado will reduce most houses to piles of rubble. An F5 tornado will completely annihilate almost any house and wipe it clean off its foundation. Winds in an F5 can exceed 300 mph.
F5 is the strongest category of tornado which rates tornadoes from F0 to F5 based on damage. An F5 tornado can sweep a house clean off its foundation.
