Chosen answer: A tornado would have to be at least an F3 to be able to pick up a truck. The waterspouts were very small.

The Fujita Scale is incorrectly portrayed as being used to describe the size of a tornado. It's actually used to describe the amount of a damage it has caused AFTER it has passed.
