A culture that has formed in mainstreem culture and then take it under ground.
The easiest subculture to use as an example is the goth scene. It started from the punk movment and then went underground when punk and goth music became "un-popular" (ie no longer in the pop charts) where it flourished. The goth scene now has its own fashion, sociological and poltical veiws, religions (Wicca, Satanism, agnostisism and even budism have all been accepted by the goth scene) as well as its own music scene.
Subculture's should be treated as any other cultures, with an open mind.

Goth/Industrial, Hip Hop (Until recently when it became mainstreem and was pillaged by the Chavs), Punk and Muslim/Sikh/Jewish/Hindu cultures when taken to the west become sub-culture.

Commonly accepted as the strongest tornado possible. According to Thomas Schlatter, the Fujita scale goes all the way up to F-12, which is winds the speed of sound. The article was actually written in Fune 1986 and was cited in the Jan/Feb 98 issue of the same periodical. Since before the original article was written in 1986, there has never been a documented tornado of F-6 or above, and the author states it's not likely to happen.
James R. McDonald includes a table of Fujita levels and wind speeds. F-6 and above is labled as "inconcievable damage". Wind speed are as follows (in miles per hour):
F-6 319-379
F-7 380-445
F-8 446-513
F-9 514-585
F-10 586-659
F-11 660-735
F-12 736 and above
note: The speed of sound at -3ºC is 736 miles per hour.
