the 8th deadliest u s tornado of all time and the deadliest since at least 1947 when a violent f 5 tornado hit woodward oklahoma killing 181 catastrophe risk modeling firm eqecat said yesterday that insured damages from the joplin tornado could be between 1 billion and 3 billion dollars according to noaa s national severe storm laboratory the costliest tornado between 1890 1999 was the may 3 1999 oklahoma city tornado which did 1 billion in damage 1999 dollars there were no tornadoes during the period 2000 2010 capable of causing 1 billion in damage the only two ef 5 tornadoes during that period the 2007 greensburg kansas tornado and the 2008 parkersburg iowa tornado each did less than 300 million in damage thus with the possible exception of this year s tuscaloosa birmingham tornado of april 27 the joplin tornado is probably the most damaging tornado of all time another high risk day for severe weather and violent tornadoes today the storm prediction center has placed portions of seven states from arkansas to indiana in their high risk region for severe weather potential and warn of the potential for long lived strong or violent tornadoes this is their second consecutive high risk forecast day and fourth of the year a high risk forecast was also issued on april 27 which was the busiest tornado day in world history with 198 tornadoes occurring in a 24 hour period over 300 people died the other high risk forecast by spc came during the final day of the april 14 16 outbreak over the southeast u s fifty two tornadoes hit that day and 26 people died in north carolina and
