With April coming to an end and no chance at storms until May first I wanted to post some tornado numbers. In the month of April a total of 167 tornado's were reported so far with 3 being in Oklahoma, 14 states including Virgina and North Carolina reported more tornado's than Oklahoma and the graphic below does not include the mini outbreak over on the east coast yesterday. So far this year there have been 673 tornado's which is almost 300 above the average up to this point in the year. Oklahoma usually averages 15.5 up to this point in the year and is below average up to this point.

Edit: Just noticed a few hours after my post that the link to the OUN tornados had been updated and jumped from 4 to 18. Most of these are probably damage survey tornado which is why they are not showing up on SPC report pages.
