Tornado history

On May 1, 1953, a brief, but violent F4 tornado struck the town, killing two people and injuring three other.[2] Almost 60 years, on April 27, 2011, another EF4 tornado hit Yantley, knocking down trees and power lines, and causing structural damage, as part of the 2011 Super Outbreak.[3]
