1990 A large F5 tornado went through Hesston, KS. It was on the ground for more than two hours and 47 miles and was, at times, three fourths of a mile wide. A personal check flew from Hesston to Blaine, a distance of 115 miles! As the Hesston tornado dissipated, a new F5 touched down alongside it that also grew to 3/4 mile wide along a 22 mile path. |

2003 A flight from Hawaii to San Francisco flew into severe turbulence about an hour before landing. Five flight attendants and five passengers suffered cuts and bruises when the Boeing 767 made a sudden drop in altitude. Meteorologists say the plane was likely flying near a storm front that was approaching California. |
