Tupelo-Gainesville Outbreak
The Tupelo-Gainesville Outbreak was the outbreak of tornadoes that included the 4th and 5th deadliest tornadoes in U.S. history. Seventeen tornadoes broke out in the deep south in the early evening hours of April 5, 1936, and ended in the late morning hours of April 6, 1936. 436 deaths were credited to the two tornadoes. The supercell thunderstorms formed out of the heat of the 90°F (32°C) day and the approaching storm system.
