The 2141 Long Island tornado was a very violent, destructive, deadly and long tracked tornado that occurred on the afternoon of July 9, 2141, prompting the issuance of a tornado emergency for most of the areas hit as a result. It is also the only tornado to reach EF5 intensity in the state, breaking the record set by an F4 250 years earlier in the process for the strongest New York tornado on record. The tornado would remain on the ground for 55 minutes, tearing much of the structures along its path apart in the process.
