I'm curious, how close was the path of the Ashville-Ohatchee EF2 to that of the Shoal Creek/Ohatchee/Piedmont EF4 (next member of the same family as TCL-BHM) of April 27, 2011? That's another corridor that seems to get hit on a fairly regular basis (also notably on Palm Sunday 1994).
It looks like at the point where the tornadoes crossed Alabama Highway 77, the paths were only about 3 miles apart. The March 19 EF-2 crossed Highway 77 about 3 miles north of where the April 27, 2011 EF-4 crossed Highway 77. (This is based on comparing the initial survey for March 19 with the path map of the April 27 tornado. I measured the distance using Google Earth. It is possible that the tracks were closer at some point).
