Significant Tornado Events

Could've sworn I had more from Bluffton but these were the only ones in the folder:

(Edit: I think maybe I thought I had more because I was thinking of this video of the aftermath.)

Thanks
 
Heres some obscure Shinnston photographs:
The wrecked compression station, I think it’s comparable to Wheatland in industrial damage IMO. Some of the piping there was pulled out of the ground:

These photos below remind me of New Richmond ngl:

Yeah, “F4” damage according to Grazulis
Btw I have 72 Shinnston photographs, some are duplicates, so maybe 68.
Heres one thing I heard somewhere about this tornado:
30 bodies were found in the river near Shinnston. Some were found weeks after the tornado, and IIRC even miles away. Makes me wonder if Shinnston had Joplin level casualties.

I don't have a lot of videos so I'm probably not the best person to ask for that specifically, but I can definitely relate to the pain of having to organize a huge hoard of material lol

For me the most important thing was to be able to quickly sort + find by date, so I landed on this for my main folder:

For outbreaks, each folder then has separate subfolders for individual tornadoes, and I use the outbreak folder itself for more general stuff that isn't attached to a specific tornado. For example, my 5/31/85 folder (the numbering is just to keep them in sequence for my article):

There's more beyond that but it's probably not useful or applicable here. Anyway, I do end up with some folders that only have like one or two photos/videos/newspaper clippings/whatever in them, but I don't really mind because it's way faster and easier to find what I need or sort and save new stuff.
By the way, do you still have the pics from Colorado City 1923, Yazoo 1933 and Oak Cliff 1933?
