The most devastating tornado

[Ripsnort]

1925 Tri-state tornado still holds the record.
I was a survivor of the Fridley Tornado in Minnesota in the 1960's (no damage to our home other than our shingles but the neighborhood across the street...we had debris all over our yards...and a few dead pets )

I've read much about this tornado. Chances are it was more likely a series of them than one funnel, but we'll never know. No radar back then.

I recommend this book  http://www.amazon.com/Death-Rides-Sky-Tri-State-Tornado/dp/1618760017

Both towns arent too far south of here. Couldnt imagine one of those happening again in modern times on the damage it would do
