CINCINNATI (FOX19) - A Clermont County teen recently won a writing contest through the University of Cincinnati for his research paper on the tornado rating scale.
Jacob Widanski, who is a junior at West Clermont High School, is taking college classes through UC Clermont College and entered this yearâs university-wide composition writing contest.
The subject he chose was the tornado rating scale. The Fujita Scale, which is now the Enhanced Fujita Scale, was originally developed in 1970 and revised in 2007.
