In Kostroma remember the terrible tornado that struck the area on June 9, 1984. In the story he was called “Ivan the beast”, as most suffered Ivanovo and Yurievets, Luh and Furmanov districts of the region.
the Main impact of elements occurred in the camp, “Ilia” in the Kostroma region. As reports GTRK “Kostroma”, about five o’clock the sky was suddenly shrouded in a huge dark blue cloud. There was a heavy downpour with hail the size up to three inches. Then there was a black cloud. It began to change, and the funnel dropped to the ground, expanding in diameter and sucking all around. Up rose the trees, panel houses. In brick buildings took the roof and blew out Windows. To appreciate the enormous destructive force of a tornado allows photo showing: water tank weighing 40 tons was moved to 400 meters.
