Strongest Tornado in Colorado History: This tornado occurred on November 4th, 1922. It started in southern Crowley County near Ordway and Sugar City before 5am. Yeah that’s right a big tornado that started in Colorado, in early November, before 5am. Crazy… Anyway, that tornado went on to move rapidly northward and struck the town of Holyoke around 9:30am. The distance as a crow flies between those two towns is about 180 miles and when you do the math, that twister was haulin’! It destroyed many farms/ranches along the way and when it struck Holyoke it killed one person. This is often a forgotten tornado when it comes to Colorado history. In typical Colorado fashion, a blizzard shut down Pueblo for that entire afternoon after the severe storms moved out that morning.
