The Andover Tornado

April 24th, 2008 · No Comments

One of the most famous tornado outbreaks in U.S. history–the so-called “Andover Tornado Outbreak”–happened 17 years ago this weekend.  Many of the most familiar images and videos of tornadoes came from this one storm, which killed 24 people.  On today’s episode of Weather Break, Creighton University student Amanda Thibault takes a look back on this devastating storm.

You won’t often catch me saying this, but I really like the Wikipedia page about the Andover tornado, and I think that their collection of external links about the storm is quite good.

Wow, there are LOTS of videos on YouTube about the Andover tornado!

Where is Andover, Kansas?
