(WAND) - Thankfully, Tuesday was a day with zero injuries and fatalities from severe storms.  Unfortunately, that hasn't been the case all season. A season that has already surpassed the yearly average number of tornadoes.   

Tuesday's round of severe weather spawned numerous funnel clouds that eventually became a tornado. 

The National Weather Service survey crew has confirmed a minimum of seven tornadoes. The EFU rating is an EF Unknown. The unknown part comes from a lack of damage to survey- and that's good news. 

Tornadoes are classified by the Enhanced Fujita Scale, or EF. It's a tornado scale classified by damage. So, if a tornado develops in an open field, or in Tuesday's case, only briefly touches the ground, there is no damage to properly estimate the wind speed.     

Additional surveys may eventually make Tuesday's outbreak even higher.
