Florida isn't home to many tornados, as they are quite rare in the area. Other natural disasters, like hurricanes, are much more common. However, there are occasionally very powerful tornados. The most powerful ever recorded was on March 1, 1980. This tornado was part of a severe weather outbreak that affected many states and produced many tornados. It formed near the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport around 3:30 PM, moving northeastward across Fort Lauderdale, Oakland Park, and Pompano Beach.
