Quincy is situated at the eastern edge of what was referred to as “tornado alley,” but when there is wind damage, it is often had to determine if it was caused by a tornado or not. In recent memory, several tornadoes have been spotted, and some have touched down in Quincy or its environs. Sometimes described as small tornadoes, they have still caused damage. Many people remember the June 14, 1998 tornado which knocked out all the windows of Sheridan Swim Club on the south side of Quincy.
