Deadly New Year's Eve Tornadoes Hit Midwest
November 15th, 2005 Tornado Outbreak
5 years ago, on this date, an EF3 tornado tore through my county, causing major damage.
The tornado destroyed at least 64 homes and damaged at least 70 more along the US 150 corridor in Washington, Cannelburg and Loogootee. Up to 200 employees were trapped at K&K Industries in Montgomery, but they were all accounted for.
The path of the tornado was 12 miles ling, and it was 3/4 mile wide in some spots. Surprisingly, no one was critically injured or killed from this tornado.
