Summary
| Description |
English: This was taken 22 miles southwest of Howard, South Dakota on August 28, 1884 according to the US National Weather Office in Peachtree City, GA and claims to be the oldest known photograph of a tornado. However, there is some dispute as to whether this is in fact the oldest known photograph in the article "Early Tornado Photographs, Bulletin of American Meteorological Society, by John T. Snow". |
