Down the damage path of the Aug 24 2024 small tornado at Klovborg, Denmark

[@NicimakiClips]

Site surveyed it for ESWD & is still working on it. With a primary intensity rating of IF1.5 (will be upgraded to IF2), the tornado caused significant damage with an IF2 DI found at Storegade 23. Here, a brick masonry home (Typically D) sustained partial loss of roof (BRD, DoD 1) which would yield an IF2 rating. The roof construction was decent with bolts & relatively fresh wood, thus no 3D vunerability would be needed. Additionally, the multi-vortex structure seem to have reached ~570 meters, along a 6.5,km long path. This would make it the widest tornado in denmark, officially (altough some cases may have been bigger, but lacked documented DI locations), beating the Holstebro high-end F3/T7 in 1962 (500 m) & the Nørager F2 in the 1900s at 500 m too. This will be the second year in a row with a strong tornado (F2/IF2 or higher) with 2023 having the grønhøj strand tornado with a final rating of IF2 (Caravan tossed 30 meters, MH, DoD 5) and the third strong tornado in the 2020s (Albertslund low-end F2/T4 in 2020, Grønhøj strand IF2 in 2023 and now this event)

Thank you for the interesting observations. Clearly a significant meteorological event in Denmark's weather history.
