On this Day in Weather History...
In 1942, a violent F4 tornado cut a counter clockwise semi-circular path 8 miles long and around 400 yards wide around Mulvane. The funnel touched down a couple miles southeast of Mulvane, moved north northeast for 2 miles, curved to the north and then toward the north-northwest for a couple more miles. Many farms were destroyed and one home was swept from its foundation 2 miles east of town. The tornado caused $85,000 damage, killed 4 and injured 10.
