To date, no town in Texas has been hit by two F5 tornadoes. Worth mentioning, though is the town of Wichita Falls, Texas. It was hit by an F5 tornado on April 3, 1964 and an F4 tornado on April 10, 1979. The second tornado is the more famous of the two and is incorrectly believed by some to have been an F5.
