Was this clip from February 12, 1982 or February 15, 1982?

It is a shame how Xenia lost SO MUCH for nice old buildings and homes and then rebuilt in a really screwed up way. Used to be such a nice quaint small town. Now it is just your typical redneck town and all the mess that comes with it. Not much to see and not much reason for people to want to come here to say the least.

Tomorrow will be 50 years…

I was 8 in 1974 but I remember seeing the damage on the helicopter footage on Walter Cronkite and I was like "Wow." I had never seen anything like it.

The first F-6 !

I was a couple of months away from my 8th birthday & over at my grandmothers where a relative was visiting, Mom was there too, they (adults) were in the kitchen, talking about things 20-40 year old ladies talked about in the 70's.... I was standing in my sock feet looking out of the large picture window at Gram's house then I see papers & stuff falling out of the sky (if you measure a straight line from my grandmother's home to Xenia... it's about 43 miles away to the SSW. The window faces the NNW. I yelled into them about stuff falling out of the sky.... they thought, I think that I was bored & making stuff up... it irritated me, so a little more hysterical sounding I said something like, "Look, I'm serious, there's weird stuff falling out of the sky... papers and, I don't know dark papers? But they're torn weird.... I think something's wrong!" finally, they came in laughing until they noticed the papers and what they identified as shingles... so they turned on the TV and changed channels and turned on a radio, finally my mom called my dad's Patrol post (he was in the Ohio State Highway Patrol) to ask them if they knew what was going on... They told them about the tornadoes. Then one of the channels cut into the program that was on... etc... it was a trip.....

Thanks

As a 17 year old boy in Ohio I know about this storm in a semi-personal way. Our family had been watching the news about the storm on the old tv. It was just awful what happened to the town and people there. Anyway about a week and a half ( there or about) after the storm I was walking back in the property in the woods of our land. It was a good sized wooded area. Any way I was following the creek back that ran thru there. The creek was framed by two hills on either side, and smack in the middle of the western hill was a white dot. I was several thousand feet away and walked up to it. And low and behold it was a canceled check from one of the banks from Xenia! Pretty shocking as we lived 157 miles northeast from Xenia. It had traveled that far on wind currents from their town. I took it home and handed to my father and he was just dumbstruck by it. It hung on his office bulletin board for a couple years after that! With personal info blacked out of course, made for some interesting conversation for years!

Who is doing the voice over in the beginning. I recognize his voice as he did the voice for KMSP TV in Minneapolis.

Would it not found out later it was 2 or3 Twitters at once I may be wrong . I say we may be it about due for one

I lives in Xenia I was 11 and it missed our house. I had a Xenia Lives t shirt and wore it all the time. My sister had a Xenia Jr. High T shirt. And if your from Xenia at that time you know they combined both Jr high schools into one until Central was rebuilt. So that shirt was kind of rare.

Heidi Sonen is such a babe. I could watch her just talk for hours.

“So SOHIO everyone!”

Marie looked beautiful on your 💒 day

Spoild.

Thanks for uploading. As the world turns was such fun. Julee was the resident tart.

R.I.P. Ken Jeffersonn.

Wow how nice that was it was very beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thanks for leaving in the commercials. I remember the days when a new car would rust out (in a snowy climate where the streets were salted) within 3-4 years. You had to take it to "Ziebart" to get it undercoated to prevent that. And it didn't work for all that long anyway.

Good program.

Remembrance and thankfulness. I drove through Xenia 15 minutes before it hit. Being from Ohio, I was no stranger to tornadoes, having near misses on another 2 occasions. Guess someone was watching over me.

I was a teenager...in Miamisburg High that day. We had a tiny 10 watt FM radio station at the school. I went home after school to grab a couple of records I wanted to play on the station. As I was walking into the school, I looked to the south and thought, "Somebody is going to get a heck of a storm". I went into the school and went on the air. We had an agreement with WFCJ-FM that they would call us if something big happened, since they had a teletype (something way beyond a high school's budget). The operator on duty advised that there was a tornado warning for Montgomery and Greene counties till 5 pm. I put that information on the air. 30 minutes later, they called me back. Said, "You know Xenia?" I said, "Yes". Their operator said, "Well, at least half of it is gone". I said, "Gone?" He said, "Yes, a giant tornado just hit". Some of my high school classmates were volunteer ambulance drivers who rushed into Xenia to give aid. How ironic. I work for WHIO radio today.

Interesting side note about the Louisville tornado....there was actually a live traffic reporter in the air while the tornado hit Louisville. Here's a video containing the audio of the reports: ua-cam.com/video/5orxm6fDKWQ/v-deo.html

Xenia has a beautiful downtown.

If you have any clips of Meg and Josh from Atwt plz post them. I loved them!

My aunt lost both legs in this tornado in xenia, she was 60 years old.

I think the quality of this video was hit by a tornado...

Every time I go past that building I remember this Wedding

I just watched your video, "Mork Marries Mindy," and i wanted to make a comment, but comments are turned off. Why?

In the Mormon church you are married for eternity she's gonna have a crowded house on the other side

Had to love Don. A Dayton legend.

The only building that didn't get wiped out, but still partly wiped out. 🤔

L Hellmund, Someone upload the December 11, 1992 Commercial Breaks - WHIO (CBS, Dayton) video on UA-cam.

God bless osmond family and Marie as steve!!!!!

Can you believe that Marie and Stephen were married for three years and had a son together, then they split up and she marries Brian Blosil and has seven other kids, and then she divorced him and fell back in love with Stephen and decided to remarried again back 2011?

So sorry for these people's loss. I remember that day well in Midway, KY near Frankfort. The sky was kind of greenish yellow I seem to recall. Though just a kid, I'm nearly positive I saw "ball lightning" roll across my yard (golf ball size). Only time I've ever seen it but it makes sense because of the crazy high charge in the air that day.

Marie was a stunning bride!!!

Where was I? I was 7 years-old living in Richmond, Indiana. We had a tornado warning also, I remember my mom taking us into the hallway of the house while my dad went outside to watch for it.

I was in the First Grade when this happened

We just had another scare this year on April 3 2018.

May I upload this on my UA-cam channel?

My dad just left the high school right as this hit. He was a senior in high school that year

WSB-TV videotape both of Channel 7's Coloradar 1974 and 1978!

Sure wish there was videos of the "bad Carrie ".

I knew one of the girls who had been at Xenia HS. She graduated, and was a couple years behind me at Miami University.

22:40 Roberds had five local locations and the massive location in North Dayton, near Vandalia is now an entertainment/gaming facility called Scene 75 (Vandalia location)... 23:34 RIP Hara Arena (Closed in August 2016)... 38:01 the WayToGo.com website still redirects to DPandL.com (Dayton Power and Light Co.) two decades later...

I remember that day. I still live in Middletown,Ohio. I remember the sky in Middletown looked very strange. We was not hit at all, but Lebanon and Monroe had some damage.
