A massive Tornado outbreak happened yesterday, which has shattered the general quiet on the severe storm front (as least for major events).
In Alabama, around ten people deid and 50 or so were injured. Mainly in Walker county on the north side where 9 of the 10 died. In Georgia, four were injured in Pickens County north past Atlanta. In Illinois no damage, but some sighted tornadoes. Indiana had 3 people who were injured when a grocery store partially collapsed.
In Kentucky, damage was reported, but no injuries or deaths. Louisana had more rain on top of the storms earlier in the season. In Lowndes county in eastern Missisiippi, one person was killed and nearly 30 were hurt.
Storms in the mountains of North Carolina knocked out power to many places. Ohio sufered the deaths of 5 and 21 people were injured mostly in Van Wert County. Pennsylvania had one man killed with 19 injured along the western edge fof the state. South Carolina had one reported tornado in Greenwood county. Tennessee had 16 dead, and 55 injured near Mossy Grove in the eastern side of the state. 45 people remain missing. 6 trailers were destroyed in West Virginia.
Unlike Hurricanes, which we are still in season for, we have much less warning for approaching Tornadoes.
The tropics remain quiet this month, chances are slim we will see anything more in 2002.
