It is difficult to determine as detailed damage surveys were not carried out back then. Detailed records of maximum path widths are not available. The largest tornado based on average path width was an F3 that tore across portions of Oklahoma, Kansas, and Missouri. It passed northwest of Galena, Kansas and north of Joplin, Missouri. One person was killed near Joplin. On average it was between 500 and 600 yards wide.
