Might have started earlier

After doing research on another subject that happened in 1896, I came across a newspaper article about nasty tornadoes that struck in Kansas and Nebraska on May 12th and 13th. I came here to see if there was any information on those tornadoes and came across this article. I do not know how to edit or add to these articles with info boxes. Here is the newspaper page that has information on the Kansas and Nebraska storms. http://westunion.advantage-preservation.com/viewer/?i=f&by=1896&bdd=1890&bm=5&bd=20&d=05201896-05201896&fn=the_argo_usa_iowa_west_union_18960520_english_2&df=1&dt=8 Jack Bee Nimble (talk)Jack Bee Nimble —Preceding undated comment added 00:17, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My copy of Significant Tornadoes lists the Kansas and Minnesota tornadoes as occurring on May 11 but does not mention a tornado in Nebraska for any of these dates. From the description in the newspaper you link to, it seems likely that the event in Lincoln was a downburst rather than a tornado. Either way, the gap in time is large enough not to count these as part of the same outbreak sequence. TornadoLGS (talk) 18:44, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
