In early June 1984, dry and hot weather was established in the Central European part of the country after a long period of high atmospheric pressure. But on June 9, two atmospheric fronts collided here, one moving from the South-West and the other from the North. The collision of two air masses led to the formation of at least three tornado funnels, which had a high destructive force. They passed in the North-North-East direction through Moscow, Kalinin, Ivanovo, Yaroslavl and Kostroma regions. Also strong squall winds were observed on this day in the Gorky, Ryazan, Kirov, Saratov regions, Mordovian, Chuvash and Mari ASSR. But the most destructive was a tornado that passed through the Ivanovo region. The wind speed inside the crater is estimated to be about 100 meters per second.
In Ivanovo and the surrounding area even with concrete and brick buildings were torn roof, broken window glass. Single-storey houses in the suburbs suffered the most. Those that were at the epicenter of the cataclysm, was completely destroyed. Some small wooden houses were thrown into the air ... trees, poles and power lines were lying on the ground. At the cemetery Balino tornado knocked down trees, turned out of the ground tombstones. In Avdotyino was disabled the water supply, the restoration of which took several days. According to estimates, 680 houses, 200 economic facilities, 20 schools, kindergartens and power lines coming from the Kostroma GRES suffered from the violence of the disaster in the Ivanovo region. According to various data, the number of human victims ranged from 57 to 79 people. Being Saturday night, among the dead were a lot of vacationers. Some were killed by whole families. Subsequently, they were buried at the expense of the state. 804 people were injured and taken to Ivanovo hospitals. "Because of the tornado, I lost my grandfather and sister - says a resident of Ivanovo Sergey Seleznev, who was then 5 years old.
In Ivanovo who liquidated the consequences, say that the corpses had nowhere to put them even supposedly in school gyms go. Another eyewitness, with whom I was in the hospital, told me that they were taken out on trucks, tents which were soaked with blood through. And she told me that she saw in Ivanovo flying through the air traffic lights and people. And the cemetery in the village of Ivanovo under Balin fly inverted out of the land of coffins with the dead". Workers from all over the Soviet Union came to help in the restoration of the destroyed objects. On the street Lezhnevsky two prefabricated 16-storey building was erected by Moscow builders. 9-storey house was built by builders from the city of Gorky. Ivanovtsy themselves built several 5-storey houses. Apartments in the newly built houses were later distributed among those who were left homeless due to the hurricane. A terrible natural disaster made an impression on the whole country. In 1986 he published a novel by Vasily Belov's "All ahead", which refers to the Ivanovo tornado. And in 1988, Director Nikolai Gubenko made the film "Forbidden zone" about the events of June 1984. Shooting took place directly on the site of the tragedy - in the Ivanovo region.
