Nebraska's Deadliest Storm

A look back at the cluster of deadly Easter tornadoes of 1913 that ripped through Omaha, Ralston, Yutan and Otoe, called Berlin at the time. The twisters were blamed for 168 deaths in Nebraska and Iowa with hundreds injured. The Omaha, Yutan and Berlin tornadoes today rank as the three deadliest in Nebraska history.
