It looks like there actually were 11, but it appears that there is an error on Tornadoes of 1995 because it says there were 11, but there where actually 12. On May 19, two F2 tornadoes hit Owensboro, Kentucky--Kevjgav (talk) 13:14, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't a good place to be posting about Tornadoes of 1995 when this is the 1989 page. Dustin (talk) 20:47, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

June[edit]

On June 25, an F3 tornado hit North Platte, Nebraska causing no fatalities, but was captured on video many times. If I can find a source to verify this, maybe I'll make that change.--Kevjgav (talk) 14:02, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

April[edit]

On April 3, an F3 tornado hit Fort Branch, Indiana. Source http://www.tornadohistoryproject.com/tornado/19890403.18.5 Kevjgav (talk) 21:12, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That doesn't seem to be the same source I gave in the article, but I did provide a source verifying this and you'll have to go to the external link in the article because I can't get this one to match that of the article.--Kevjgav (talk) 21:19, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ok now I got it. I finally got the source to redirect to the external link. In the source given, you can see the tornado and the town being hit by the storm on the map.--Kevjgav (talk) 06:53, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
