There is no shortage of examples of tornadoes in Florida. Literally thousands have hit the state since record keeping began in 1950. To give an example, we shall turn to one of the worst tornadoes to hit Florida. This F3 tornado struck Kissimmee, near Orlando, on February 23, 1998. It tore through a mobile home park and and RV park in the town, killing 25 people and injuring nearly 150. In total, 1,000 structures were damaged or destroyed by this tornado and damage totalled $50 million.
