We recently had the anniversary of the forgotten tornado outbreak of April 15, 2011, which mainly affected Central and South Alabama. It sort of got overshadowed by the even worse outbreak that hit more in North and Central Alabama on the 27th of that same month, not even two weeks later. But I remember this thing, and it was a stout tornado outbreak in its own right. I remember on the weather blog I had then, I was disappointed that it didn’t do anything in North Alabama, felt like I’d given my readers an overhyped forecast that just totally busted.

DISCUSSION:

Available on Substack.

P.S. It's 2:47 AM Friday now . . . and . . . 

I tried a YouTube video for the first time in years. Not even sure I'm using the best program for it, but one step at a time as I try to make this into a professional project one way or the other.
