How Long has it Been Since our Last Tornado Warning?

Check out these stats!  This is an updated map that shows how long it's been since the last TORNADO WARNING was issued by each office of the NWS!  The last time our office (Quad Cities) issued a Tornado Warning was 368 days ago!  This is more evidence of how little severe weather the U.S. has seen over the last 12 months.  It appears the period from May 2012 - April 2013 will have the lowest number of EF-1 and stronger tornadoes on record for the 12 month stretch!


Kudos to Iowa Environmental Mesonet for this cool graphic!
