The magnitude of this event was more rare, but there are tornadic storms every year across the entire SE part of the country in the late winter/very early spring. There have been plenty of outbreak situations in the past as well as far back as we have been keeping records. While one of the more rare events, it's nothing "new".

Our climate is really changing a lot and the results are more storms than before. Tornado season seems to be starting earlier than ever.
