In terms of strength, any F5 or EF5 tornado warrants a look as to whether it might be the strongest, as such a rating puts them in the top 0.05%. A few particular ones stand out, however.The Tri-State tornado of March 18, 1925 had the longest damage path and fastest forward speed of any tornado ever recorded and is also the deadliest tornado in U.S. history. Although detailed damage surveys did not exist back then, the widespread F5 damage indicates an extremely violent tornado.The Xenia, Ohio tornado of April 3, 1974 was one of the most destructive and intense tornadoes in U.S. history and the worst of the infamous Super Outbreak.The Jarrell Texas tornado of May 27, 1997 produced the most severe tornado damage ever seen, though this may be partially due to the tornado's slow forward speed, which resulted in it staying over one place for a long time.The Moore, Oklahoma tornado of May 3, 1999 had the highest wind speed ever recorded on Earth at 302 mph. However, it is impossible to say whether the other tornadoes listed might have been stronger as they never had their winds measured.
