Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The U.S. tornado outbreak of 2011 challenged and surpassed the records set by almost all previous tornado events, ranking as one of the deadliest and most expensive meteorological disasters on record. A total of 362 tornadoes were reported during a four-day period from April 25-28, 2011. The worst day of the outbreak was April 27, 2011, seen here in this visible GOES-13 satellite image. Supercell thunderstorms pushed across the Deep South, producing 69 tornadoes in Alabama alone. While Alabama was hit the hardest, the system had significant effects on Arkansas, Louisiana, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, Mississippi, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Ohio, Texas, and Oklahoma. April 27, 2011, likely remains the “deadliest day for tornadoes” in the last 75 years.
