Relating observed solar and earthly electromagnetic changes to tornadic intensity in the US: is there a correlation? The first goal for this research is to tabulate the hourly timestamps of the storms from 1958-3/2019 that are known to have spawned tornadoes rated F4 and F5 on the Fujita scale. The second is to compare the events with USGS geomagnetic data and both quantify and illustrate possible correlations, which may help point toward genuine conclusions and inspire fruitful related future research.
If a non-coincidental correlation is confirmed, it may reveal a new forecast parameter for improving forecasting accuracy for the world’s strongest tornadoes, if not also general tornadic intensity or a previously hidden component of tornadogenesis. Altogether uncovered are five potentially new revelations about F4 and F5 tornadoes.
