Grazulis estimate is 800 yards...of course it may have been slightly larger or smaller then that (given how far long ago it occurred, no way to do a more thorough survey of its peak width) so I'd say it was slightly under a half mile. Flint-Beecher, MI was of a similar width, not often you have massive wedges in Michigan, usually tornadoes up there take on the narrow, drillbit or stovepipe formations.While we're on topic - how big was the Oakwood tornado? I know Sherman was at least 60 yards when it hit the town and Seneca was up to two miles wide, but what about Oakwood?
