The Teton–Yellowstone tornado was a rare high-altitude tornado which occurred on July 21, 1987, in the U.S. state of Wyoming. Rated at F4 on the Fujita scale, it remains the strongest tornado ever recorded in the state and the only recorded F4/EF4 tornado in Wyoming history. The tornado cut through a 24-mile (39 km) long and 1.5-mile (2.4 km) wide swath of the Teton Wilderness and Yellowstone National Park, and even crossed the Continental Divide. Damage occurred at elevations ranging from 8,500 to 10,000 feet (2,600 to 3,000 m), making it the highest altitude violent tornado recorded in the United States. No human fatalities or injuries were recorded, but up to 1,000,000 trees were uprooted by the storm. The F4 rating was based on the severity of the tree damage in the worst affected area

  • Der Teton-Yellowstone-Tornado war ein seltener Tornado, der sich am 21. Juli 1987 gegen 13.30 Uhr im Nordwesten des US-Bundesstaates Wyoming ereignete. Mit einer Stärke von F4 auf der Fujita-Skala ist er der stärkste jemals gemessene Tornado in Wyoming. Ebenfalls war er der einzige aufgezeichnete F4-Tornado in der Geschichte des Bundesstaates. (de)

No human fatalities or injuries were recorded, but up to 1,000,000 trees were uprooted by the storm. The F4 rating was based on the severity of the tree damage in the worst affected areas. Huge swaths of trees were flattened, and many were stripped of leaves and limbs, with the trunks debarked. Topsoil was picked up and spattered against the bare trunks. Meteorologist Ted Fujita noted that the only comparable forest damage he had seen associated with an F4 tornado had been in the Appalachian Mountains after the Murphy, North Carolina tornado of the 1974 Super Outbreak. Most of the damaged forest later burned in the Yellowstone fires of 1988. (en)
