Kansas' Deadliest Tornado

from Weather Geeks

Guests: Jim MinickIntroduction: Tornadoes are one of the most violent weather phenomena on our planet, the strongest of which have been rated an EF5, or an F5 before 2007 when the Enhanced Fujita scale was put into practice. These incredibly violent tornadoes are uncommon, with the last one occurring 10 years ago in 2013. Today, we’re going to go back even further, and take a look at the deadliest twister in Kansas history; an F5 that struck the city of Udall, killing 82 people. Joining us today is Jim Minick, author of Without Warning: The Tornado of Udall, Kanas, to discuss this deadly moment in weather history.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
