The Outbreaks Section
Significant Tornadoes 1974 to 2022 will contain a section on tornado outbreaks
Here's a preliminary look at some of what you can expect:
The following are the top 5 outbreaks from 1974 to 2022. The rank with the highest outbreak intensity score is first (OIS of 446). For instance, #3 on November 21,1992 is the third most intense outbreak of the period 1974 to 2022. The Outbreak Intensity Score (the OIS) is 187, with 26 F2s. You need only the number of EF2, EF3, EF4 and EF5 tornadoes to figure the score. The second row with the rank, date, deaths, and injuries (deaths and injuries are not counted in this system) has the number of tornadoes at each intensity. In the third row they are multiplied by 2, 5, 10 and 15 to calculate the OIS. In the third row, the number of EF0 and EF1 drops to zero and are ignored. Add the remaining numbers together to get the final score.
The Outbreaks section, about 45 pages, is a small part of the book.

The graphs at the end of the book will show you why the months of November, 2023 to March, 2024 could be a very interesting period for cold weather tornadoes.
The books are here and orders go out within a day or two of the time we receive your order.
