May 22, 2012 marks the one-year anniversary of the tornado outbreak that brought six longer-tracking tornadoes to the local area and the most signficant to hit the City of La Crosse since records have been kept. Combined, these tornadoes were on the ground for over 90 miles, and remarkably, no lives were lost. On that same day, the Joplin, Missouri EF5 intensity tornado devasted that city and, to date, is responsible for 161 deaths.
