Hurricane Milton roared onshore over Florida on Wednesday evening. Prior to making landfall, numerous super cell thunderstorms formed with the favorable right front quadrant and produced a prodigious number of tornadoes, including some that are likely going to be rated EF3 and perhaps higher. The approach angle of the Hurricane to Florida, arrival during peak daytime heating, and unusually cold air aloft created a primed environment for tornadoes. The NWS offices in Florida ended up issuing 126 Tornado Warnings for the day. The featured chart presents an IEM accounting for the largest number of Tornado Warnings issued for a US Central date for a single state. Yesterday's event comes in second place behind the super outbreak on 27 April 2011.
