A wind greater than 90 mph can lift a person off the ground. If a person gets tossed out of the wind field they simply fall back to the ground. Some, whole do not have far to fall, have escaped without serious injury.

Were people prepared for the tri state tornado?

No. Back in 1925, when this tornado ocurred, there were no tornado waatches or warnings. In fact, meterologists were forbidden to mention tornadoes in their forecasts for fear of starting a panic. As a result, the Tri-State tornado struck without warning. Because of the wide funnel and low cloud base, many people who saw it approaching did not even realize it was a tornado.
