Введение
24 января 1967 года на Среднем Западе Соединенных Штатов произошла крайне редкая серия зимних торнадо. Из 30 подтвержденных торнадо 13 обрушились на Айову, девять – на Миссури, семь – на Иллинойс и один – на Висконсин. В то время это была самая северная серия торнадо, зафиксированная в США зимой, в Висконсине, до 7 января 2008 года. Торнадо формировались впереди глубокой циклонической системы. Самый смертоносный и разрушительный торнадо этой серии обрушился на район Большого Сент-Луиса, достигнув интенсивности F4, в результате чего погибли три человека и 216 получили ранения.
An extremely rare wintertime tornado outbreak affected the Midwestern United States on January 24, 1967. Of the 30 confirmed tornadoes, 13 occurred in Iowa, nine in Missouri, seven in Illinois, and one in Wisconsin. The outbreak produced, at the time, the northernmost tornado to hit the United States in winter, in Wisconsin, until January 7, 2008. The tornadoes formed ahead of a deep storm system The deadliest and most damaging tornado of the outbreak struck Greater St. Louis at F4 intensity, killing three people and injuring 216.
Предыстория
Во вторник, 24 января 1967 года, отрицательно наклоненный желоб разделял Средний Запад Соединенных Штатов. По мере продвижения холодного фронта через Верхний Средний Запад сформировалась линия прерывистых суперячеек, производящих торнадо.
On Tuesday, January 24, 1967, a negatively tilted trough bisected the Midwestern United States. As a cold front traversed the Upper Midwest, a line of intermittent, tornado producing supercells developed.
Подтвержденные торнадо
До 1990 года наблюдается вероятная недооценка торнадо, особенно E/F0–1, при этом сообщения о более слабых торнадо становились более частыми по мере роста населения. Резкое увеличение среднегодового количества торнадо E/F0–1 примерно на 200 торнадо было отмечено после внедрения доплеровской метеорологической радиолокационной станции NEXRAD в 1990–1991 годах. 1974 год стал первым годом, когда количество значительных торнадо (E/F2+) стало сопоставимо с современными значениями, что связывают с последовательным применением оценок по шкале Фудзиты. Существуют многочисленные расхождения в деталях торнадо этой вспышки между различными источниками. Общее количество торнадо и их категории различаются в разных агентствах. Ниже приведена информация из самых современных официальных источников, а также оценки историка торнадо Томаса П. Гразулиса.
Prior to 1990, there is a likely undercount of tornadoes, particularly E/F0–1, with reports of weaker tornadoes becoming more common as population increased. A sharp increase in the annual average E/F0–1 count by approximately 200 tornadoes was noted upon the implementation of NEXRAD Doppler weather radar in 1990–1991. 1974 marked the first year where significant tornado (E/F2+) counts became homogenous with contemporary values, attributed to the consistent implementation of Fujita scale assessments. Numerous discrepancies on the details of tornadoes in this outbreak exist between sources. The total count of tornadoes and ratings differs from various agencies accordingly.

Grazulis. + Color/symbol key Color / symbol Description † Data from Grazulis 1990/1993/2001b ¶ Data from a local National Weather Service office ※ Data from the 1967 Storm Data publication ‡ Data from the NCEI database ♯ Maximum width of tornado ± Tornado was rated below F2 intensity by Grazulis but a specific rating is unavailable.

Наряду с 30 подтвержденными торнадо, исследователь торнадо Томас П. Гразулис перечислил два дополнительных торнадо F2, которые могли сформироваться. Первый произошел к западу от Мускатина, округ Мускатин, штат Айова, в 22:30 UTC, сорвав крышу и разрушив дом. В "Storm Data" он был официально зарегистрирован как сильный штормовой ветер. Второй произошел на южной окраине Иллинойс-Сити, округ Рок-Айленд, штат Иллинойс, в неизвестное время, повредив дома, прежде чем сорвать крышу с фермерского дома. В "Storm Data" он был официально зарегистрирован как часть комплекса сильных штормовых ветров.

+ Список подтвержденных торнадо во время вспышки торнадо 24 января 1967 года
Prior to 1990, there is a likely undercount of tornadoes, particularly E/F0–1, with reports of weaker tornadoes becoming more common as population increased. A sharp increase in the annual average E/F0–1 count by approximately 200 tornadoes was noted upon the implementation of NEXRAD Doppler weather radar in 1990–1991. 1974 marked the first year where significant tornado (E/F2+) counts became homogenous with contemporary values, attributed to the consistent implementation of Fujita scale assessments. Numerous discrepancies on the details of tornadoes in this outbreak exist between sources. The total count of tornadoes and ratings differs from various agencies accordingly. The list below documents information from the most contemporary official sources alongside assessments from tornado historian Thomas P. Grazulis. + Color/symbol key Color / symbol Description † Data from Grazulis 1990/1993/2001b ¶ Data from a local National Weather Service office ※ Data from the 1967 Storm Data publication ‡ Data from the NCEI database ♯ Maximum width of tornado ± Tornado was rated below F2 intensity by Grazulis but a specific rating is unavailable. Along with the 30 confirmed tornadoes listed, tornado researcher Thomas P. Grazulis listed two additional F2 tornadoes that may have touched down. The first occurred west of Muscatine, Muscatine County, Iowa, at 22:30 UTC, unroofing and tearing apart a house. It was officially listed as a severe thunderstorm wind in Storm Data. The other occurred on the southern outskirts of Illinois City, Rock Island County, Illinois, at an unknown time, damaging homes before ripping the roof off a farmhouse.
