The F5 tornado, the most powerful to hit the U.S. in 8 years, ripped through Greensburg, Kan., late Friday, May 4, 2007, and demolished every business on the town's main street. Churches lost their steeples, trees were stripped of their branches, and neighborhoods were left unrecognizable. Officials estimate as much as 95 percent of the town was destroyed. At least 13 people died in storms in the area.
