This table shows the NWS radar areas (124nm range) that had the greatest annual average number of severe weather reports during the study period (1980-2006). Significant severe weather is defined by F2 or stronger tornadoes, 2 inch or larger hail, or damaging winds of 65 knots or stronger.

This table shows the NWS radar areas (124nm range) that had the greatest calculated threat of tornadoes during the study period (1980-2006). Significant tornadoes are defined by F2 or stronger intensity. These values are based on the size and intensity of reported tornadoes, using this method of calculation.
