National Tornado Track Map for 2008

[Jason McKittrick]

I was wondering if anyone knows of an Internet source that has a track map for this years tornadoes? After the long-track tornadoes we have witnessed over the weekend, plus the January and February long-track events I want to compare this years observed tornado tracks, with past years on svrplot. I have a feeling that we have had a lot more long-track tornadoes this year than almost any other year since 1950.

I know you're looking for information from this year... but the Tornado History Project is a *really* great resource for older information, however, they only have tornado maps from 1950-2006. See: http://www.tornadohistoryproject.com/

If you're looking for more up to date information, the NCDC Storm Events site has FINAL data available up to the end of FEB 2008. See: http://www4.ncdc.noaa.gov/cgi-win/wwcgi.dll?wwEvent~Storms

One minor correction to the last post...The Tornado History Project currently has data through 2007.

Hello, I lost the link to the Severe Thunderstorm event database and can't seem to find that site that has a list of every day with a severe storm report from 2000-2008. I believe the site was called the Severe Thunderstorm event database or something like that and listed every date and then you could click on them to see the storm reports. Can someone post the link please? I tried google but I must be doing something wrong for my search.

Thanks.
