Never a year goes by where I don't recall every memory from 2011 on this date. A tornado outbreak of this magnitude is what we call a "generational outbreak." Only two of this caliber have ever been recorded, with the other being in 1974 This was my first time ever chasing in "dixie alley" so I was not quite used to the challenges that came with the terrain. I played it somewhat cautious, knowing the parameters we were dealing with. I was only one of I believe 2 people to capture this tornado on

Listen to the roar of this powerful EF5 tornado in Philadelphia, MS during the Super Outbreak of April 27, 2011. This tornado was one of the loudest I have heard next to the Bakersfield, MO tornado from Friday night. This tornado dug a trench in the clay that was two feet deep, and was one of the first tornadoes of the afternoon mode of the outbreak.
