From that point, a tornado struck the northeastern section, two individuals kicked the bucket and endured lost $500,000 in Annapolis and the mine town of Linana.

In 1925, climate forecasters were taboo when discussing tornadoes, as "tornado" was absent in the vocabulary of the United States Weather Bureau. Truth be told, the word tornado was prohibited in 1887 when the U.S. Armed force Signal Corps was in charge of estimating the climate.

After this tremendous tornado, neighborhood tornado-spotter systems started to rise, making papers of 1925 discuss such spotters. These spotter frameworks would potentially help spare numerous honest lives later on.
