Nice Phineas and Ferb reference. Dr. Heinz Doofitshmirtz was actually my most favorite character from that series. Still, though, rest in peace all the people who perished in Tornados.
The best examples of what this tornado might of look liked, are the Joplin or Phil Cambell-Hackleburg EF-5s, also the word "tornado" was banned up to 1948 until the Tinker AFB, in OK tornado, because of this a lot of research into tornadoes was blacklisted. Thanks for talking about what the local railroads did, I think you are the first to ever mention that.
Hundreds died in Natchez, MS in 1840 because of a huge tornado. Historians believe the official number of victims is only half the actual number making it the deadliest in history but officially it takes 2nd place.
Those photos simply saying; "[Family] Home - All Family Killed." Morbidly blunt, but at the same time when the backdrop is just see a sea of wood that used to be houses, what could you write other than that?
I'm from a couple miles from its path and can confirm Parish is now basically 20 houses. Also fun fact Thompsonville that helped Parish was destroyed by a tornado 50 years later.
One close to home, my grandparents are from Ellington. On another note, Ellington was on a now abandoned and little known railroad called the Missouri Southern that operated from the 1880s to about 1935. Some of the row can still be seen but only a few in the area know the extent of the railroad that once was there.
It wasn't rain wrapped. People thought it was a dust storm, eerie fog, or a black mass of clouds rolling along the hills, more like a amorphous cloud. The Tri-state Tornado was indeed a wedge, and sometimes multivortex camouflage in dust confusing people. I didn't look like a tornado. The only thing it did after the tornado past was snowed. I just watched a documentary on the Tri State Tornado. You should watch it. I also have a video of a image of what they think the Tri-state Tornado looked like. Very nightmarish.
Can you imagine something like this happening today? Some meteorologists trying to give out information while trying to keep up with what is going on while we watch the storm on satellite. Would not want to see that happen but if it did, that would be some fascinating horror
As this happened almost 100 years ago, the advances in technology and warning systems we have now are incredible. I wonder if some towns would have less deceased if they had early warnings.
The Hackleburg EF-5 tornado in Alabama back in 2011 probably looked a lot like the Tri-State Tornado did at times. The tornado in Alabama was 1.5 miles wide at its widest. The Hackleburg Tornado of 2011 looked much like a bank of fog at times during its rampage.
I'm thinking it looked more like El Reno 2013 because in most pictures you can't even make out the edges of the funnel and anyone could've driven right into it.
Fun fact: the rail line I live on (Union Pacific Chester Subdivision, back then it was the Missouri Pacific) was hit by the tornado in the town of Gorham Illinois right over by the Cora Coal Terminal aswell as where the line also merged with the Mount Vernon Subdivision. I remember being told that back when the tornado hit there were box cars that were lifted up and thrown by the strength of the tornado.
So let's get this straight. They said that on this day that a single tornado crossed through 3 states. Is it possible - Maybe - but is it likely? / I think more likely is that a really bad storm affected the USA that day. And that it produced multiple tornadoes that came across a similar line.
I grew up in southeast MO. Driving this path actually isn’t that far. In this little area, you can drive into 5 states in a short jaunt. It wouldn’t be impossible, but it is also possible that this was a family of tornadoes. The evidence indicates a constant path, though
"BEHOLD! MY TORNADO-INATOR! with this, I can level the entire TRI STATE AREA!"

Tri PLEX!!!!!!!!! POGGgg Nvm Tri soorta reminds me of the Triplex
I've always wanted to see a movie made about this as a docudrama with stories from the actual survivors that've been passed down to us.
I plan on doing one of the 2017 ef3 tornado
Man this is the real life Twister movie but horrifying.
Seen it and live it in 2017 it was a ef3 wedge tornado in Dougherty County
The movie and all others like it have got nothing on this real life, once in a hundred year storm.
@@Kaidhicksii ya have to remember that tornado season will happen at anytime of the year check your forecast everyday
I've heard that some miners did not know about the tornado until they surfaced at end of shift.
Awesome video. Love your tornado videos and hope to see more in the future!!!

No it was banned until a powerful tornado obliterated Udall in 1955.

Don’t forget the similarities to the midway f4 in 1965

Great video Darkness, condolences to all the families who lost loved ones in this disaster so long ago.

2:42 A creepy photo of the Ruskin Heights tornado of 1957.
Very creepy. Old black and white tornado photos look even scarier than modern color photos do.

I don’t have to my mom and dad both seen the f5 and it was terrifying and lucky someone took the pictures of the damage path
Rip to all 695 people, this was truly a horrifying tornado. Respect to the families.
I was wondering if you could do the mayfield tornado of 2021.
As this happened almost 100 years ago, the advances in technology and warning systems we have now are incredible. I wonder if some towns would have less deceased if they had early warnings.
Would be cool to see him cover the daulatpur-saturia tornado
Oh hey Perfect Chaos phase 2, good taste in bgm for this one.
PLEASE keep doing these tornado video’s. Super entertaining and informative.
May all of those who lost their lives to this monstrosity, may rest in peace.
The weather isn't a monster.

More tornado videos plz! Maybe you can do an episode on the 1998 Nashville Tornado!
Now something nobody wants a repeat of ever
POV: EF5-State Tornado (Any EF5 that rips through 5 different states)
The name of the Indiana river and it's namesake railroad is pronounced "WAH-bash", but thanks for the story.

History will repeat itself when a new Tri-State Twister occurs
It already happened again. I just watched a documentary on it.
Stopped outside of Francisco, Indiana
Talk to a gent who was a boy at the time, he remembered that the sky was green,he shut a door and woke up block from his house.
Toranodo so big mile long stronge nickname then finger god look like come out sky ok

Yes a tornado could go through 3 states just look at the damage path on google maps
It was a few tornadoes...they did a research on the path there is a break in it

A tornado family doesn't spawn consecutive 300 mph tornadoes
@@EliRicke-xl9mw that would be a super cell thunderstorm that can spawn multiple tornadoes in a day

"WAH-bash" (Say AH like the A in Iowa. Say "Waugh bash!" with emphasis on the first or both syllables, but not on the second syllable, ya silly.)
I think, another can track that long if climate change gets worse and if struck a downtown city like Chicago san Antonio and Dallas .
We got a derecho with tornadoes here in Houston recently. 6 people ended.
@@grmpEqweer if is like ef4 or ef5 may ef6 if climate change gets worse
I can see a violent tornado actually going through El Reno and continuing straight into Oklahoma City.
