Serenity now! |
I found this pretty interesting. Click on a state, and you can see all recorded tornados since 1950. This brought back memories of many scary nights in my childhood, listening to the tornado sirens. https://data.montgomeryadverti...rnado-archive/texas/ Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice. ʘ ͜ʖ ʘ | ||

Very cool…and up to date… The one that hit me on Sept 01, 2021 is on there…and shows it went directly over my house. Just got my roof and gutters wrapped up and done about a month ago. _____________________________ Pledge allegiance or pack your bag!

Interesting! I found the one in Michigan that took out several of our outbuildings on the farm in 1967. Also surprised by the number of tornadoes in Maine! I thought they were pretty rare, but it shows 139 since 1950. None anywhere near me tho. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

There's an area in Texas around Sonora where there's very little activity. Is that a sweet spot or is it possible they don't have sufficient monitoring equipment in that area?

I remember the F1 that touched down in South San Francisco in 2005. Damaged some 60 buildings. | |||

I looked for tornadoes that hit near my homes in Nashville. None are showing on the map. 2 were in 1974 & my new 240Z was beat to hell with 2" hail stones. I watched it form, touch down, go back up, touch down again then dissapate when it went over Percy Priest lake. Another hit the airport & a couple of light planes were never found. Probably dropped into the lake. __________________________________________________ If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit! Sigs Owned - A Bunch | |||

One hit my house in Stone Mountain GA sometime between 1985-1990. I was little and we weren't home, thankfully, but it took the entire roof off our house. I don't see it on the map but maybe it didn't register as a tornado. I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log. | |||

Very cool. Last week I was back home in the St. Louis area and was driving through Defiance, MO without thinking of the December 2021 EF3 tornado that killed 1 and stumbled upon the damage there. I was caught off guard. Houses leveled to their foundation less than 100 yards from houses with no visible damage. NWS has detailed reports for recent tornadoes through a GIS website with overlays of Google Earth maps and pictures of the severity data points. Here is the one for Defiance, its amazing how it followed some highways and the Missouri River and narrowly missed the densely populated area of St. Louis County and St. Charles County. This was the same storm system that took out the Amazon warehouse in IL and caused many fatalities in Kentucky. You can zoom out to see those tracks. https://www.weather.gov/lsx/12_10_2021 | |||
