Tri-State tornado may have looked like the Hackleburg-Phil Campbell tornado

This tornado killed my great grandmother. She lived in Parrish, Illinois.

The tri state tornado is a record holder in some places. But a near record holder and a historical record holder in others.

Tri state tornado 1925, super outbreaks of 1925 and 2011 worst on record

Tri state tornado 1925, super outbreaks of 1974 and 2011 Joplin, mo

So sad😢

How do you think this event would have stacked up against the El Reno, OK tornado of 2013?

The el reno tornado of 2013 was at 2.6 miles wide twice the width of the tri state tornado which was 1.3 miles wide. Though in 1925 there was no professional or even amateur weather warning system in place also the communication equipment to warn people was lacking the only way was by radio or telephone but these could have been cut off due to the impact of the damaging weather.

el reno was just freaky and massive, damage wise it would be pathetic compared to what tri state did. now el reno at its full intensity and 2.6 miles wide going along the tri state track... obviously it would be pure obliteration

There were areas where people didn't even know that it was a tornado and not a large black cloud or mist until it was almost on top of them during the TriState tornado.

Now, there is the quad state tornado, from AK, to KY (Mayfield).

That tornado was found to be at least two separate tornadoes.

Terrible storms

Unfortunately this will occur again.
