Our local weather man was on the air freaking out the whole time that tornado was on the ground an it was on the ground for 52 miles.
2004 Hallam Nebraska Tornado


According to Wiki, this storm was on the ground for 10 minutes and traveled 52 miles?????? Someone do the math on this! 60mph is a mile a minute. This has got to be false information.....


That comes out to approximately 312 mph.

Wikipedia is not always a reliable source of information.

Possibly, they mean square miles.
