The SPC Storm Reports Map shows the Southernmost "long track" storm traveling from Oran, MO to Paducah KY and beyond.
There are 6-8 Tornado Reports from MO to KY on the track (I haven't mapped out all the reports, yet)
and the track lies directly over Southern tip of Illinois in the vicinity of Cairo.
As the crow flies, this is about 60+ miles.
I have not confirmed a tornado in Illinois from this apparently cyclical supercell.
It is probably a string of touchdowns, but a single long track twister -- maybe ??
I am still trying to map it out,
and thought maybe someone out there might be able/want to help.
The Southern end of Illinois was historically referred to as "Egypt" and this is mentioned in many of the
accounts of the 1925 Tri-State event. I found it interesting that this possible Tri-State storm may
have gone over "Cairo".
Did anyone catch this storm ? Is there a chronology ?
