Severe thunderstorms, excessive rainfall, critical fire weather are all in the outlook today and into this last weekend of April. Very large hail, severe wind gusts, and a couple strong tornadoes will all be possible across the central and southern Plains today. Flash flooding also possible for portions of the Plains and Mississippi Valley. Critical fire weather conditions for Southern High Plains Read More >
While the overall number of severe weather days in 2010 was relatively few, each episode that occurred packed a punch with significant wind and/or large numbers of tornadoes. There were a total of 33 confirmed tornadoes in the Northern Indiana County Warning Area(CWA), ranking 2010 as number 1 for most tornadoes in a calendar year.
1st 33 in 2010 (19 in Indiana, 8 in Ohio and 6 in Michigan)
2nd 30 in 1998
3rd 27 in 1965
4th 22 in 1974
5th 20 in 1992 and 2001
Some of the tornadoes crossed from county to county, including 3 that either moved into or out of adjacent County Warning Areas. For these tracks, multiple intensities are indicated, representing the damage in each county. The maximum intensity for the tornado is what is officially recorded (Example: A tornado with EF2 damage in one county, then EF1 in the next will be rated as an EF2 for climate purposes).
The following is a breakdown of tornadoes by intensity according to the Enhanced Fujita Scale (EF Scale).
EF0 (65-85 mph) 14
EF1 (86-110 mph) 14
EF2 (111-135 mph) 4
EF3 (136-165 mph) 1
