Weather Patterns We’re Watching
What happened 10 years ago?
10 years ago, the U.S. was experiencing one of the largest, deadliest, and most destructive tornado outbreaks in its history. The outbreak from April 25-28, 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. It resulted in roughly $12 billion in damages and left an estimated 321 people dead. The event killed more people than any tornado outbreak since 1936, when 454 people lost their lives.
