Historic Tornado

On Sunday, June 3, 1860, at 6:30 pm a storm and tornado struck Camanche. Few buildings were left standing. All were badly damaged. The storm moved at 50 mph. The lack of an organized way to report weather events left people on the Mississippi vulnerable. A raft carrying 26 men was hit outside Camanche. Only three survived.

For Camanche, the disaster resulted in 29 deaths, 76 people seriously injured.[12]

The storm killed a total of 140 people in just a few hours and injured over 300.[13]
