Wasn't there even a couple of pretty deadly EF3's from that historic day?For sure, in fact most of the deaths on 4/27/2011 were caused by just five tornadoes (Hackleburg/Phil Campbell, Tuscaloosa, Rainsville, Smithville, and Ohatchee/Piedmont). The Hackleburg/Phil Campbell tornado alone caused more deaths than an average year, and didn't even hit any major cities (to my knowledge the biggest town it hit was Tanner).
There were a few, yes. The Sawyerville tornado in particular killed around 10 people if I recall correctly.Wasn't there even a couple of pretty deadly EF3's from that historic day?
The EF4 tornado that went through parts of Tennessee into Ringgold, Georgia killed 20 people on that historic day.There were a few, yes. The Sawyerville tornado in particular killed around 10 people if I recall correctly.
Looking that way, yeah. Were the 10 deaths in Lee County from one tornado or two, by the way? If it was just one then it would be the deadliest tornado in the US since Vilonia.So would this be the deadliest tornado event in Alabama since April 27th?
