It did hit several houses near that strongest tree damage. This 185mph rating house was just south of the severely debarking forest and the debris of the house caused the debarking. It should be mentioned that they were softwood trees. I have to say, though Louisville likely did EF5 or near EF5 damage, but was still not quite at the same level with Vilonia which every bit of its DI scream extreme intensity.I really hate the question “ Vilonia vs Louisville “ because i really do not know what to pick, I will say this, the tree damage caused by the Louisville tornado was EXTRAORDINARY and was comparable to bassfield. vilonia in my opinion produced more intense damage, but i have a feeling louisville would have been absolutely horrible if it hit something at EF5 intensity
