of snow in just 24 hours. The snowfall total was nearly twice that of any other storm on record

The town of Codell, Kansas was struck by a tornado on the same date three years in a row. 
A tornado hit on May 20, 1916, 1917 and 1918. The U.S. experiences 100,000 thunderstorms a year,
and less than 1% produce a tornado. The odds of this coincidence is extremely small
