IMPORTANT NOTE: If this is your first adult passport (first passport renewal after your 16th birthday), then use Form DS-11 instead of DS-82. The fee for first-time adult passports is $135. It is recommended that at least one parent appear in person with children ages 16 and 17.
Do wider tornadoes cause more damage? There is a statistical trend toward wide tornadoes having higher EF-scale damage. This can be because of more strength or because of greater opportunity for targets to damage, or a combination of both.
Damage from severe thunderstorm winds account for half of all severe reports in the lower 48 states and is more common than damage from tornadoes. Wind speeds can reach up to 100 mph and can produce a damage path extending for hundreds of miles.
