Remember, we get more than one report from some locations. We don’t feel like cheering about the beneficial rain because of all the people who suffered property damage from all the storms this afternoon.
I am certain that the NWS issued more warnings Sunday than we did in the Super Outbreak in April, 1974.
Not really easy to compare because back in those days radar was nowhere near the quality of today and the storm spotter network was much, much thinner than today.
