Why Huntsville Families Need Storm Shelters

Huntsville sits in the heart of "Dixie Alley"—a region meteorologists consider the worst place in the world for tornadoes. Unlike traditional Tornado Alley in the Great Plains, Dixie Alley produces longer-track tornadoes, more violent storms (EF4 and EF5), and significantly more nighttime tornadoes when families are asleep and most vulnerable.

April 27, 2011 remains seared into the memory of every North Alabama resident. On that single day, 216 tornadoes touched down across the region—including four EF5 tornadoes—killing 319 people. It was the deadliest tornado day in the United States since 1936. Madison County sustained multiple direct hits, with widespread damage across the area. Additional notable events include the January 2010 EF2 tornado that struck downtown Huntsville and Five Points, and the November 1989 tornado that devastated southern Huntsville business districts.
