Jim did you sail to Australia?

The biggest, (widest ever) tornado hit not all that far from me. 2.6 miles wide!

https://earthsky.org/earth/el-reno-tornado-on-may-31-now-widest-ever-recorded-in-u-s

At times it was moving across the ground at 120 MPH. It killed a few professional meteorologists and tornado hunters.

The highest recorded wind on the planet ever 301 mph winds in a tornado that struck near Moore, Okla. on May 3, 1999. To measure it, they had to calculate from radar speeds. Since no "recording" was done they usually don't count it as the fastest wind. But 301 is faster than anything else wind wise every.

So we are number one!

Both Moore and El Reno are suburbs of OKC, and the borders of the cities touch and it is hard to know when you go from one cit to the next.
