In the years of 1922, 1912, 1902, 1892 they didn't keep really good records but I am doing a science project about them!
I am trying to figure out about the Austin Texas, Electra Texas, Wyoming, and anywhere else they had a tornado in 1922
And in 1912 I know there was two tornados in Creighton Missouri and Yukon Oklahoma but I am looking for more and Creighton and Yukon's place of fujita scale
And for the other years 1902 and 1892 I am trying to figure out what tornadoes they had that year and stuff about them.
Do you know anything about the area where you live and if they had a tornado in this year? Or do you know any info about the tornados above? Thanks!

Generally speaking, the older the tornado, the less reliable the wind speeds were. Back then, they didn't stick around to measure the wind speed or apply science to the aftermath to determine what the Fujita scale was for that particular tornado. For Oklahoma, the National Weather Service has a page listing all the tornadoes on several tabs. For Canadian county (where Yukon is), you can go to http://www.srh.noaa.gov/oun/tornadodata/county/getcounty.php?county=Canadian and http://www.srh.noaa.gov/oun/tornadodata/ is the main page for it. Apparently, only Oklahoma is listed and it's probably because the National Weather Service is based in Norman, Oklahoma.

well here is some more tornado's the tri state tornado were it went to and from three state it was so big or wide you really could not see it (forgot the date but look it up it was a big thing) the tornado was back when the pictures were black and white. Oh yeah and there was a tornado up in minnesota (were i live) It was the St. peter tornado (famous for destroying a church) I would tell you more but time is up for batterys and I don't have the charger with me today

Here's an idea on how to create a tornado.
Place a trailer park in the middle of a flat treeless area somewhere in the mid west. Wait about ten minutes and POW! You got your tornado.

You "love" tornadoes? You wouldn't love them so much if you'd ever lived through one. I lived through the 1979 tornado in Wichita Falls, Texas. Lost everything I owned and some friends too...Bet you wouldn't love that, wouldya?
You aren't going to find any Fujita Scale data for 1921 tornadoes. It wasn't implemented until 1971...

I didn't browse it all but this might help or at least get you started: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_North_American_tornadoes_and_tornado_outbreaks
