I'm a meteorologist of sorts, so I wanted to know how well the tornado in the last episode, "hurricane fluttershy" matched up to a physical tornado. The results surprised me immensely. It appears physical, with winds around 130mph, or an EF-2.

So much fun to do.

When you mentioned vector at the end, I thought you meant the unit vector you used for the radial direction of the tornado.

Anyway, as a student of theoretical physics, I found this pretty awesome, if only the use of non-SI units a bit confusing.

Do you mean that as a pun on "clapped" or...the other thing bronies use "clop" for?

think about this, if we calculated how much force it would take to turn the anemoeter, couln't that divided by 800 (the WP needed to turn make the tornado) give us the force of one wing power?
