Fortunately, our weather is quiet today, but 13 years ago today was a different story. On April 27, 2011, a massive tornado outbreak unfolded across the region. The strongest tornado in Georgia was an EF-4 that devastated parts of Catoosa County. weather.gov/ffc/20110427_s…
Today we pause to remember those whose lives were forever changed by the April 27, 2011 tornado outbreak. 💙
Today marks 13 years since the April 27-28, 2011 Super Outbreak. This event produced over 60 tornadoes locally, which led to 34 fatalities and 467 injuries in our area alone. Here is a link to a StoryMap we put together in 2021 for the 10-year remembrance: tinyurl.com/ycycskxs
🗓️Today is the 13th anniversary of the historic severe weather outbreak that impacted the Tennessee Valley. Here's a link for more information. #HUNwx weather.gov/hun/hunsur_201…
THIRTEEN YEARS AGO TODAY: I still don't have the words to describe the generational tornado outbreak of April 27, 2011. In Alabama, 62 tornadoes touched down. A total of 252 were killed, over one thousand more injured. Pulitzer Prize-winning author Rick Bragg is a gifted…
NEVER FORGET: We will never forget the 252 lives lost on April 27, 2011 in Alabama, when 62 tornadoes tore through the state.
April 27, 1942: A pair of violent tornadoes ravaged Rogers and Mayes Counties in northeast Oklahoma. Pryor, Oklahoma, was devastated, as a third of the town's structures (~500 buildings) were damaged or destroyed. 56 people were killed and 362 were injured. #wxhistory
April 27, 1970: A violent F4 sliced a path 42.6 miles long north of Nashville. Numerous structures were completely destroyed, mainly near the cities of Springfield and Greenbrier. Three people were killed and 85 were injured. #wxhistory
The afternoon of April 27 into the early hours of the 28th was the climax of the 2011 Super Outbreak. Astonishingly, 49 tornadoes were significant (EF2+): 1. Oxford, Mississippi EF3 2. Philadelphia, Mississippi EF5 3. Cullman, Alabama EF4 4. New Wren, Mississippi EF3
April 27, 1899: Four significant tornadoes impacted northern Missouri. Two tornadoes were estimated to have been F4s. The town of Kirksville was devastated, as over 300 structures were damaged or destroyed. At least 46 people were killed and ≥165 were injured. #wxhistory
April 26-27, 1994: Touching down just before midnight, an F4 tore its way through the northern edge of Lafayette, Indiana. Along a 14-mile path, several dozen permanent homes and 64 mobile homes were damaged or destroyed. One person was killed and 70 were injured. #wxhistory
April 26, 2011: The second day of the Super Outbreak saw 56 tornadoes touch down in numerous states from Texas to New York. Five tornadoes were significant, the strongest of which was an early-morning EF3 that struck Campbell Army Airfield. Four people were injured. #wxhistory
April 26, 1989: The deadliest tornado ever recorded devastated the Manikganj District of Bangladesh. Countless homes in several towns were leveled and trees were stripped bare of bark. The death toll was approximated at around 1300 with another 12,000+ injured. #wxhistory
April 26, 1884: The first photograph ever taken of a tornado was captured in Garnett, Kansas. Hundreds of spectators watched the tornado for a half hour. One person was killed. The photographer, Mr. A.A. Adams, took this shot as the tornado began its rope-out stage. #wxhistory

Today is the anniversary of one of the largest tornado outbreaks ever! I remember this day cause I was trying to study for a mesoscale meteorology final. Not well of course 😅 #wxtwitter #OTD #wxhistory #weather #tornado
April 27, 2011: The climax of the Super Outbreak ravaged the Southeast US and several other states. An astonishing 15 tornadoes were violent (EF4+), the strongest of which were four EF5s in Alabama and Mississippi. Over 300 people were killed and 2700+ were injured. #wxhistory
Preliminary look at an earlier deployment near Pisgah, IA on Friday (26 April). (Reflectivity, Rho-HV, Doppler)
The afternoon of April 27 into the early hours of the 28th was the climax of the 2011 Super Outbreak. Astonishingly, 49 tornadoes were significant (EF2+): 1. Oxford, Mississippi EF3 2. Philadelphia, Mississippi EF5 3. Cullman, Alabama EF4 4. New Wren, Mississippi EF3
Damage surveys are still in progress today. Our 5 survey teams are finding evidence consistent with at least EF-3 strength in some areas. The preliminary ratings will be shared as soon as we collect and analyze more data. We will provide additional details as soon as we can!

These are just 4 radar images from today’s violent tornado outbreak. Amazingly, no fatalities have been reported. Don’t take for granted the work of meteorologists. Their hard work, between the NWS, SPC, broadcasters, chasers, and researchers, saved dozens of lives today.
@weather_history How technology has come so far since 1991. I'm not sure the number today, but many of these tornados were large and long lived. My hope though is the number of deaths turns out much lower than '91.
And today would be the anniversary of the Andover tornado!
Several other major tornadoes impacted Kansas. The Andover F5's parent storm spawned an F2 that paralleled the Kansas Turnpike. Famously, a KSN-TV news crew sought shelter under an overpass as the twister passed overhead. A massive F4 leveled homes and killed 1 in Cowley County.
Imagine a tornado killing 1,300 and injuring 12,000+ Bangladesh 🇧🇩 1989
April 26, 1989: The deadliest tornado ever recorded devastated the Manikganj District of Bangladesh. Countless homes in several towns were leveled and trees were stripped bare of bark. The death toll was approximated at around 1300 with another 12,000+ injured. #wxhistory
April 26-27, 1994: Touching down just before midnight, an F4 tore its way through the northern edge of Lafayette, Indiana. Along a 14-mile path, several dozen permanent homes and 64 mobile homes were damaged or destroyed. One person was killed and 70 were injured. #wxhistory
