On May 25, 1955, after an F5 tornado killed 20 people, injured 250, and destroyed/damaged hundreds of buildings in Blackwell, Oklahoma, the same supercell produced another F5 tornado that struck Udall at 10:35 p.m, the deadliest tornado to ever hit the state of Kansas. A 1,300 yd (0.74 mi) wide F5 tornado demolished Udall; no building within the city limits was untouched, including the grain elevator, water tower, old grade school, new high school, city hall, three churches.
