Tornadoes

by Robert Davies-Jones

This 317 x 480 pixel image shows how the touchdown of a tornado on April 12, 1991, in northern Oklahoma left a swath of damage 800 meters in width. One of a series of twisters emerged from a highly organized thunderstorm on May 31, 1990, in the Texas Panhandle, demolishing several structures.
