Late-September 2006 tornado outbreak : ウィキペディア英語版 | Late-September 2006 tornado outbreak
The Late-September 2006 tornado outbreak was a significant tornado outbreak that occurred across a large swath of the Central United States from September 21 – September 23, 2006. 48 tornadoes were confirmed. ==Overview==
Some of the September 22 storms caused heavy damage in some locales with injuries. The strongest tornado hit Crosstown, Missouri - it was an F4 tornado, the first since March 12. Several well constructed structures in Crosstown were completely leveled, and hundreds of others were severely damaged. Areas just outside of Pilot Knob, a small town in Missouri, were affected by two separate F2 tornadoes that caused considerable damage. The northern fringe of Metropolis in Illinois was also hit by a damaging F3 tornado in which homes were completely destroyed. In eastern and central Missouri alone, over 400 homes or other structures were badly damaged or destroyed. 10 people were injured.〔http://www.cnn.com/2006/WEATHER/09/24/severe.weather.ap/index.html〕 Several tornadoes also occurred north of Birmingham, Alabama - three of which were rated as F2's. In addition to the tornadoes, there were numerous reports of straight-line wind damage and hail larger than baseballs, as well as countless reports of damage from flash flooding due to the heavy rains as a result of the thunderstorms. This was one of the most widespread non-tropical September outbreaks in US history, yet no tornado-related deaths occurred (although 12 people were killed by other thunderstorm impacts).〔
