Hoosier Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Just out of curiosity.....which strong tornado appeared to track all the way across Florida? That would be the F4 of April 4, 1966, though I think I've read that it may have been a tornado family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a tornado family with a possible long track thrown in. Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 This map would be incredible as an interactive product. Hover over a track and get info on that specific storm. Or click through to an info page on each tornado. As is the map is really something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EquusStorm Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Very nice... I'm a sucker for maps. I can pick out more than a few really significant events rather well on there.I know many offices offer GIS and similar after severe events, the home office BMX being one of them, but it would definitely be nice to have a national database offering detailed information on each path listed on maps such as the posted one. This is as close as I think we have, based on SPC data with start and end points plus injury and fatality data and damage cost, but it is not updated past 2008. Plus, the detail offered is pretty scant... understandable, given how many tornadoes are listed. But still.Not that anyone asked, but Grazulis splits the Florida state-crossing F4 in 1966 into at least three separate tornadoes, noting that the first two may have been tornado families themselves.
