western part of the state gets hit fairly often. nothing like how states farther west gets hit though. My part gets one every 5-10 years. maybe a good straightline wind every other year or so. We have real hills. had a twister hit roughly a mile away but could barely see the tornado because it was behind a hill.
The Xenia 1974 tornado is the more infamous hit as it was a F5.
Went looking into some history and apparently we had an F5 near where I live in 68.
going through wiki history, ohio has had 8 official or possible F5s

Ohio isn't exactly Tornado alley. Apparently you get them somewhat regularly? Hey was, I grew up in Omaha too. Well remember the air raid sirens going off for tornado warnings. Remember one going through south Omaha in the 60s. Fairly regularly in my area

After seeing Mayfield Ky hammered a couple years ago, this seems hauntingly familiar.
My heart goes out to the folks there in Ohio, and hope for the same national response from everyday people pitching in to help the victims.

https://channel3now.com/2024/03/14/...ndian-lake-ohio-after-a-violent-tornado/Apparently there are many trapped people. A trailer park was totally destroyed. The lake has many canals that were dug to access the docks for thousands of trailers and cabins The tornado passed 1.6 miles South East of me. I could hear it for about 3 minutes. The ridge behind us sheltered us. A taxidermist friend of mine called and texted me. He filmed rotation where he lives near Deleware, Ohio. Another friend of his probably lost his house. I've fished and stayed at Russels Point, an area that was just destroyed at Indian Lake, many times. My mom's friend had a weekend getaway trailer there. Keith tornadoes also touched down near wapakoneta, the findlay-bluffton area, and storms ravaged the counties and surrounding counties.
