That's pretty new Northern Florida gets Tornados but Miami. That's got to be rare. Especially from a non hurricane.

Yeah it doesn't happen often, I think the last non tropical Tornado hit Miami was in 1997

Had some tornados in Cape Coral also. Every now and then we get water spouts that come on land in Tampa area.

Florida has been getting hit pretty bad recently, had a EF3 tornado in Century (north of Pensacola) and a Tornado in Miami-Dade and Broward counties all last week

We're at the point where climate change is starting to fukk up weather patterns and cause more extreme weather. Too late to stop it, really.

Stay safe Florida brehs.

I will say, Dixie Alley has experienced a bad string of Tornadoes in the past 5-10 years, in fact Alabama ranks #1 in the whole country in violent tornadoes

That can't be true. Over the midwest?

Yep its true

Alabama ranks No. 1 in most violent tornadoes. When and where have they struck?

Eight doesn't sound like a large number. But what if it referred to eight tornadoes? Eight of the most violent storms, twisters with more than 200 mph winds?

That's how many EF5 tornadoes, the strongest in intensity, have struck Alabama since 1966, more than any other state in the nation.Then consider 247, the number of Alabamians who lost their lives along the paths of those eight twisters, and you get a better idea of their destructive power.

The eight EF5s to hit Alabama are:

• March 3, 1966: Vienna and Benevola in Pickens and Tuscaloosa counties
• April 3, 1974: Guin in Marion County
• April 3, 1974: Tanner to Harvest in Limestone and Madison counties
• April 3, 1974: Mt. Hope in Lawrence County
• April 4, 1977: Smithfield subdivision in Birmingham
• April 8, 1998: Oak Grove and Pleasant Grove in Jefferson County
• April 27, 2011: Hackleburg to Phil Campbell to Tanner and Harvest
• April 27, 2011: Rainsville in DeKalb County

Alabama has also been struck by 34 EF4 tornadoes, the second most violent.
