Nineteen days (and counting?)

Today is June 10, 2008. As of 10:00 pm, there has not yet been a tornado report in the US. This marks the first day in 19 consecutive days where at least one tornado was not reported. I don't have the statistics handy from storm data, but certainly 19 consecutive days with at least one tornado is quite a lot!

As I type, there are two potential tornado-producing storms, one in Rooks Co. KS (I am certain that the residents of Rooks County are tired of tornadoes.... they've had their fair share this spring! **Edit: 3 of the 19 days had tornado reports in Rooks Co., an two other days had tornado repts in a nearby county**) and the other in central IA. So the string of consecutive tornado days might just continue.
