HISTORY
On This Day
2018- An overnight tornado outbreak that begins in the late evening on November 5 spawns at least 9 tornadoes across Middle Tennessee. The strongest tornado causes EF2 damage and kills one woman west of Christiana (Rutherford County), and another EF2 tornado tracks for 40 miles across Franklin, Coffee, and Grundy Counties.
2005 – Severe thunderstorms produced a deadly tornado near Evansville, Indiana during the early morning hours of November 6. There were 23 fatalities from the tornado, with 19 of the deaths occurring in the Eastbrook Mobile Home Park located just to the southeast of the city (Associated Press). It was Indiana’s deadliest tornado since the Super Outbreak on April 3, 1974.
