Central Florida has it's Hazardous Weather Awareness week next week. In conjunction with that... a state wide tornado drill is planned for sometime next week..

I believe it's Monday but don't quote me..

6 years ago Monday.. 42 people died and nearly 300 were injured when tornadoes came through Central Florida during the early AM hours

Maybe I just notice it more, but it seems like, especially in late winter and early, early spring, the southeast U.S. sustains more overnight tornado outbreaks.

Weather Guy.. I think you're right.. Ours happened between the hours of 10pm and 4 am I believe.. It was horrible :cry:

Here we get damaging winds, large hail, and "doppler radar indicated" tornadoes overnight, but touchdowns at night, not very often.
