Actually pretty common, as far as April
Worst tornado of our lifetimes was back on April 3-4, 1974.
148 confirmed tornadoes. And to tell you the truth, or radar imagery was not near as good back then, so I bet if you were to use the same hi tech radar now, it was probably close to 200.

Good point, often in the past when tornadoes hit in the wooded areas, it was not known. Now days they send folks in (or drones) to record damage when spotted on radar. Thus why the MSM reports "more tornadoes now days, global warming/climate change"...

I think March and April are the top months for us here in Bama. Tornado hit in state on Jan 3rd, which is early for us though.
