7/26: the day of the Reserve, MT EF3 in 2010. A very good argument can be made for EF4 for this tornado, which was likely Montana's strongest. Sadly, there were 2 fatalities.

Further details:
Unrelated to the current discussion but I strongly suspect the 7/26/2010 Reserve tornado was worthy of an EF4 rating and the actual strongest tornado in Montana's recorded history. The state's only official F4 (Glendive 1961) is not listed as a significant tornado by Grazulis and from what I've heard was literally a brief touchdown in an empty field. The Reserve tornado on the other hand completely destroyed the Smith Ranch at its peak intensity, sweeping away every building on the property with the exception of one quonset hut that was flattened regardless. A two-story ranch house was swept clean, and two people were killed there despite sheltering in the home's basement. In addition, a pickup truck was thrown a quarter mile, a combine was rolled "several times" per the NWS survey and left a mangled mess, and grain bins full of grain were obliterated, including one that had its foundation cracked. Though the ranch home was not well anchored, the damage seems pretty consistent with other tornadoes rated low-end EF4 including Pocahontas 2011 and Keota 2023 (the homes impacted in those cases were also not well constructed, but the contextual damage was still used to rate those tornadoes as violent including a combine wrecked in a very similar fashion by the Pocahontas County EF4).
Footage of the thing:

Not exactly a tornado event per se, but it's the 5th anniversary of the Big Wind Bag of 2020.
I got some lightning and a free car wash, although there was damage in Monroe a couple miles south of where I was.
