This is a database of tornadoes that have affected the Huntsville Forecast area this year. National Weather Service Storm Survey information regarding the tornadoes that occurred so far in 2025 within the NWS Huntsville County Warning Area (CWA). Included are storm survey damage points with pictures where available, tornado damage paths, and estimated damage swath information where applicable.

Tornado TracksThis feature layer, utilizing data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), displays tornadoes in the United States, Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands between 1950 and 2024. A tornado track shows the route of a tornado. Per NOAA, "A tornado is a narrow, violently rotating column of air that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground. Because wind is invisible, it is hard to see a tornado unless it forms a condensation funnel made up of water droplets, dust and debris. Tornadoes can be among the most violent phenomena of all atmospheric storms we experience. The most destructive tornadoes occur from supercells, which are rotating thunderstorms with a well-defined radar circulation called a mesocyclone. (Supercells can also produce damaging hail, severe non-tornadic winds, frequent lightning, and flash floods.)"EF-5 Tornado Track (May 3, 1999) near Oklahoma City, OklahomaData currency: December 30, 2024Data source: Storm Prediction CenterData modifications: Added field "Date_Calc"For more information: Severe Weather 101 - Tornadoes; NSSL Research: TornadoesSupport documentation: SPC Tornado, Hail, and Wind Database Format SpecificationFor feedback, please contact: ArcGIScomNationalMaps@esri.comNational Oceanic and Atmospheric AdministrationPer NOAA, its mission is "To understand and predict changes in climate, weather, ocean, and coasts, to share that knowledge and information with others, and to conserve and manage coastal and marine ecosystems and resources."

Historical tornado records for North Dakota from 1950 to present.

This map shows all tornadoes and available tracks from 1950 to 2011. This gives users a comprehensive look at the dispersion of tornadoes across the United States. Tornado tracks display the total length of tornado paths and are only shown at the largest extents. Tornado strength shown by its fujita scale, is displayed by color and point size. Stronger storms are shown with larger symbols and brighter colors. Pop-ups contain relevant tornado information including date, time, fujita scale, fatalities, injuries, tornado track length and tornado width. All data was provided by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

This ArcGIS map contains the two tables that are used for creating all the tornado points and lines on the FL ENSO Tornado Map. The two layers 'TornadoPoints' and 'TornadoTracks' come from these two tables and contain all of Florida's documented tornadoes from 1950-2022. The additional layers with '_EF#' at the end of the names are layers for each tornado that obtained those F/EF intensities in Florida (only one F-4 track on record in Florida, no F/EF-5s). Data from NOAA/NWS SPC tornado archive found at https://www.spc.noaa.gov/wcm/#data.

Currently filtered for Storm Date is after 12/1/2023Purpose: This is a feature layer of tornado swaths for the NWS Damage Assessment Toolkit.The National Weather Service (NWS) Damage Assessment Toolkit (DAT) has been utilized experimentally since 2009 to assess damage following tornadoes and convective wind events. The DAT is a GIS-based framework for collecting, storing, and analyzing damage survey data, utilizing the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale for the classification of damage. Data collected from individual locations via mobile device are transmitted to a central geospatial database where they are quality controlled and analyzed to assign the official EF rating. In addition to the individual point, the data are analyzed to generate track centerlines and damage swaths. High resolution satellite imagery and radar data, through partnership with the NASA Short-term Prediction Research and Transition Center, are also available to aid in the analysis. The subsequent dataset is then made available through a web-based graphical interface and GIS services.Here is the full REST service: https://services.dat.noaa.gov/arcgis/rest/services/nws_damageassessmenttoolkitGeoplatform website: https://communities.geoplatform.gov/disasters/noaa-damage-assessment-toolkit-dat/More InformationWelcome to the National Weather Service Damage Assessment Toolkit. Data on this interface is collected during NWS Post-Event Damage Assessments. While the data has been quality controlled, it is still considered preliminary. Official statistics for severe weather events can be found in the Storm Data publication, available from the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) at: https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/IPS/sd/sd.html Questions regarding this data can be addressed to: parks.camp@noaa.gov.

This map shows US tornado paths and intensity from 1950 to 2019.
