[Front cover] Target Tornado, The Weather Channel, Home Video Series, No place on eath has better weather." [Back cover] "Of all the weather phenomena, tornadoes are probably the most fascinating and frightening. For centuries, man has been mesmerized by the power and strange beauty of these terffiying storms. Tornadic storms can produce winds up to 300 miles per hour that can rip through a home and leave it flattened in seconds. On average, more than a hundred Americans are killed each year by tornadoes. One single tornado outbreak in 1925, the Tri-State Tornado, killed 792 people. Serious study of tornadoes began with "Terrible Tuesday" - April 3, 1974 - the largest outbreak of tornadoes ever recorded. Travel with "Project Vortex" - the largest tornado study in history - and the Weather Channel documentary unit, as scientists search out twisters in Nebraska and Kansas - the heart of Tornado Alley. Target Tornado tells the fascinating Project Vortex story, the story of 1925 Tri-State Tornado, and shows you what was learned from "Terrible Tuesday."
