re: Tenth Anniversary of the 2011 Super Tornado Outbreak

One part of the state of Alabama that doesn't get talked about enough that was impacted just as much, or maybe worse, as any other part of the state is Northeast Alabama. True, it isn't as populated as other areas that were hit that day, but it saw four deadly tornadoes within less than 20 miles of each other. That's four distinct tornado paths that all killed people. I'm doing some reading now on the EF5 in Rainsville, AL.

To put that day in perspective: I've seen maps, granted not official, that completely leave that EF5 off. I don't think it is intentional, of course, but it does illustrate the scope of the outbreak. While looking back, some people legitimately forget an EF5 tornado. That is just crazy to me.
