This year started out with a month of active winter weather in the Midwest and South. The first tornado of the year came early with a wintertime severe weather event in Illinois. The eclipse was one of the biggest events of the year, followed by a very active spring for storms and tornadoes that produced some career intercepts and imagery. This year has so far produced a career-record 27 tornado intercepts.
