A weatherman can get away with using the "F word" in polite conversation. For example, F-1 to F-5 is a scale used to describe the severity of what?

The Fujita scale was introduced by none other than University of Chicago's Ted Fujita in 1972 to measure the intensity of a tornado's winds. An F-5 is the most severe, with an F-1 causing minor damage. Think of it like, the stronger the tornado, the more times you might yell "F!"
