This day will live forever in the hearts and memories of most Alabamians, and the scars left on the Alabama landscape will be visible for years to come. Despite the destruction left behind, there were immediate visions of redevelopment and growth. The 2011 Super Outbreak spanned multiple days and affected 26 states across the southern and eastern United States. Alabama was the hardest hit.

The National Weather Service of Birmingham and Hunstville have created an interactive website of the event, including maps, photos, meteorological data, Family Album, and more:
