List of tornadoes in the 2011 Super Outbreak
During April 25–28, 2011, the local weather forecast offices of the National Weather Service confirmed 361 tornadoes in the United States, and Environment Canada confirmed another in Ontario. These tornadoes were part of a major outbreak of tornadoes, the 2011 Super Outbreak, in which 362 tornadoes touched down across 21 states in the Southern, Midwestern, and Northeastern United States and in Ontario, Canada. As the outbreak developed on April 25, numerous tornadoes touched down across Texas and Arkansas, with an EF3 near Hot Springs Village, Arkansas that caused significant damage and killed one person and a long-track EF2 tornado in the Vilonia, Arkansas area that killed four people and injured 16 others after being on the ground for over one hour.[1][2] April 26 saw no deaths and mostly weaker tornadoes, with the notable tornadoes of the day being an EF2 tornado that tracked across parts of Texas and into Louisiana and a brief EF3 that struck Campbell Army Airfield, causing $1 million (2011 USD) in damage. From the 27th to 28th, a series of devastating, long-tracked, violent tornadoes killed hundreds of people throughout an area extending from Mississippi to Virginia. This included eleven EF4s and four EF5s. One particularly devastating and long-lived EF5 wedge tornado tore across northern Alabama and into Tennessee, killing 72 people and devastating several small towns, particularly Hackleburg, Phil Campbell, Tanner, and Harvest. A large, long-tracked EF4 was broadcast live on multiple TV stations as it caused catastrophic damage in densely populated areas of Tuscaloosa and Birmingham, Alabama, killing 64 people. Numerous other small towns including Smithville, Mississippi; Cordova, Alabama; Rainsville, Alabama; Ohatchee, Alabama; Cullman, Alabama; Trenton, Georgia; Ringgold, Georgia; Apison, Tennessee; and Glade Spring, Virginia sustained devastating, direct hits from intense tornadoes, with several producing death tolls well into the double digits. 319 additional tornado-related deaths occurred within those two days before the outbreak came to an end, bringing the total death toll to 324.[3][4][5]
