On Easter Sunday 2020, one of the most prolific tornado outbreaks ever recorded would devastate the Southeastern United States, producing tornadoes that left behind a swath of damage from Texas all the way to Maryland. Several of these tornadoes would shatter records and leave everything in their path unrecognizable. This is their story..
The April 12th, 2020 tornado outbreak is mostly known for the monster EF4 tornado that devastated several rural towns in Mississippi including Soso and Bassfield. The tornado is one of the most violent tornadoes to occur since the 2013 Moore Oklahoma EF5 and achieved a peak width of 2.25 miles making it the widest in Mississippi state history and third widest overall behind only the Hallam Nebraska F4 and 2013 El Reno EF3.
My deepest condolences go to the people affected by the recent Rolling Forks, Mississippi tornado.
EF Scale explanation:
EF0 Light Damage (65-85mph)
EF1 Moderate Damage (86-110mph)
EF2 Considerable Damage (111-135mph)
EF3 Severe Damage (136-165mph)
EF4 Devastating Damage (166-200mph)
EF5 Incredible Damage (201mph+)
