Twenty-four significant tornadoes, killing least one hundred…
March 1890 CE
The most notable of the spawned tornadoes is one measuring F4 on the Fujita scale, which visits Louisville, Kentucky.
The tornado carves a path from the Parkland neighborhood all the way to Crescent Hill, destroying seven hundred and sixty-sicx buildings (two and a half million dollars worth —a little over one billion in current dollars) and killing an estimated seventy-six to one hundred and twenty people.
At least fifty-five of these deaths occur when the Falls City Hall collapses.
This is one of the highest death tolls due to a single building collapse from a tornado in U.S. history.
In addition, it will be one of the twenty-five most deadly tornadoes in U.S. history until May 22, 2011.
It will be relegated to 26th when the May 22, 2011, tornado in Joplin, Missouri, kills one hudredand fifty-eight.
The day after the destruction, the Louisville Courier-Journal will labe the tornado "the whirling tiger of the air".
Due to the fast pace of reconstruction, there will be almost no sign of this tornado having occurred just one year later.
