Ohio has experienced tornadoes as strong as F5.

Perhaps the worst was the tornado that struck Xenia, Ohio on April 3, 1974. The damage caused by that tornado was equivalent to over $ 1 billion in today's money. 31 people were killed.

The tornado was so damaging that Tetsuya Fujita himself considered adding an F6 category to the F0-F5 ratings already in use.
