The infamous 1979 Wichita Falls tornado was an F4.
The infamous Waco tornado occurred on May 11, 1953. It is unknown when a tornado might hit Waco again.

An infamous tornado is one that is well-known for being particularly bad. For example, the Oklahoma City F5 tornado of May 3, 1999 was, at the time it occurred, the most destructive tornado in U.S. history. It destroyed a mile wide swath of the Oklahoma City area, caused, $1 billion in property damage, killed 36 people, and injured 583. This made it the deadliest tornado to hit the U.S. since 1979.

a significant portion of Campbellsburg, Kentucky was detroyed by a tornado on April 1, 1974, 2 days before the start of the infamous Super Outbreak of 1974.

Tornadoes are not formally named, hurricanes are. However, many tornadoes are named for where they hit or towns they go near. Though sometimes this leads to one tornado being called by multiple names. For example one infamous tornado that occurred on May 3, 1999 is often called the Oklahoma City tornado, the Moore, Oklahoma tornado, and the Bridgecreek-Moore tornado.
There were several tornadoes on this date, but the one that went down in history was the infamous Tri-State tornado. This F5 tornado tore a record 219-mile-long damage path across Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana, killing 695 people. It was by far the deadliest tornado in US history.
Seek shelter. If you can get yourself underground, that's the best place to be. Although many people assume overpasses provide a safe haven this is far from the truth; they are by far the worst place to be as a large tornado will easily suck you out. See related links for video of the infamous 1991 tornado in which a group survived a small tornado under an overpass, and a link to tornado myths.
Tornadoes are not given names as hurricanes are, but are often referred to by where and when they hit. Some of the most infamous tornadoes include The Joplin, Missouri tornado of May 22, 2011; the Moore, Oklahoma tornado of May 3, 1999; The Wichita Falls, Texas tornado of April 10, 1979; and the Worcester, Massachusetts tornado of June 9, 1953.
