The states of Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, and West Virginia have absorbed some of the most violent tornadoes ever recorded in the country — storms that leveled entire communities, erased them from maps, and left behind death tolls that, in several cases, still rank among the worst in American history. These are the strongest and deadliest tornadoes, told state by state, from a riverside tornado in 1840 Mississippi that tossed steamboats like toys, to a modern EF4 that tore through Kentucky for nearly three hours in December 2021.

The U.S. state of Mississippi experiences several tornadoes per year. There have been at least 2,611 recorded tornadoes since 1950. At least 586 people have been killed and 7,593 people have been injured by these tornadoes. Many tornadoes took place within the state prior to 1950 as well, but only tornadoes that caused fatalities or were estimated to have been F2 or greater intensity on the Fujita scale were recorded in this period of time.
