What sort of a record do you think was set?
There is a good chance that April 2011 will end up being the most active April on record for tornadoes.
The severe storms that started in Oklahoma and Arkansas at the end of last week ended up affecting homeowners in 15 states, setting a record for the largest tornado outbreak in U.S. history.
The news has been saying record setting all week.
There is a good chance that April 2011 will end up being the most active April on record for tornadoes.
1) March 18, 1925 - 747 people killed after tornadoes hit the U.S. Midwestern states of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana.
2) March 21, 1932 - 332 killed, most of them in Alabama, following a wave of tornadoes across the southeastern United States.
3) May 17, 1840 - 317 died, nearly all of them in the city of Natchez, Mississippi, after tornadoes hit Louisiana and Mississippi.
4) April 3, 1974 - 310 killed in what is known as the "Super Outbreak" when 148 tornadoes rampaged across at least 13 U.S. states over a 24-hour period.
5) May 27, 1896 - 305 died after tornadoes hit Missouri, Illinois and Kentucky.
6) April 11, 1965 - 260 killed in the "Palm Sunday" tornado outbreak when twisters swept across Illinois, Indiana and Michigan.
7) April 5, 1936 - 249 died, most them in Tupelo, Mississippi, following an outbreak of tornadoes in Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi and Alabama.
8) April 20, 1920 - 224 killed in Mississippi and Alabama.
9) April 24, 1908 - 224 died in tornado outbreak that hit Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.
10) April 6, 1936 - 205 killed, nearly all of them in Gainesville, Georgia. It was the last time a single tornado killed more than 200 people in the United States.
The year that holds the record for the highest number of tornadoes is 2004 with a whopping 1,817 twisters.
what you cannot see, shock wave headed this way, prepare. New record set for tornadoes this year. If you thought this was bad. Shock wave headed this way. prepare. Ever wondered what is going on? Space shock wave headed this way.

Are you saying this event did not happen? Are you saying that amateur astronomers alerted the general public about it? I am confused as to what your saying exactly?
Originally posted by ngchunterAmateur astronomers, myself included, would not engage in a cover-up. We did not "alert" the public about an astronomical catastrophe in 2003 simply because there wasn't one. Comet C/2002 V1 gets hit by a coronal mass ejection, so what? It was not "doom" or cause for alarm. I'm offended that you're saying this is proof that we would participate in a cover-up.
To the point at hand then: Can you see Elenin? What does it look like?
Let’s shed a little light. Comet C/2010 X1 (Elenin) was discovered by Russian amateur Leonid Elenin on December 10, 2010.
Although he lives in Lyubertsy, Russia, like many amateur astronomers, Elenin takes astrophotos ‘remotely’ using telescopes that can be controlled by a home computer.
The night of his discovery he was taking routine photos of the sky at the independent Russian remote observatory ISON-NM (International Scientific Optical Network) near Mayhill, New Mexico.
