From the late morning of April 12 through the early morning of April 13, a major and deadly tornado outbreak unfolded across the region, with many strong to violent tornadoes touching down and causing major damage and numerous fatalities. Over a 48 hour period from the early morning hours of April 12 to the evening of April 13, 140 tornadoes touched down from Texas to Maryland. This event was well forecasted, with the Storm Prediction Center issuing severe weather outlooks as early as five days before the outbreak. At 10:40 a.m. CDT on April 12, a Particularly Dangerous Situation Tornado Watch was issued by the Storm Prediction Center across northeast Louisiana, southeast Arkansas, and central and northern Mississippi.[79] At 11:44 a.m. CDT, a tornado emergency was issued for Monroe, Louisiana as an EF3 tornado moved through the city, causing significant damage to more than 200 homes, as well as the Monroe Regional Airport.[80][81][82] At 3:30 p.m. CDT, two back-to-back supercells produced three intense and long-tracked tornadoes in southern Mississippi, including two rated EF4. The violent tornadoes promted the National Weather Service in Jackson, Mississippi to issue multiple tornado emergencies for numerous towns. The first of these two EF4 tornadoes leveled and swept away homes near Sartinville, Mississippi, killing four. The second one reached high-end EF4 strength as it completely debarked trees, lofted vehicles hundreds of yards through the air, and obliterated well-built homes and structures in and around the towns of Bassfield, Soso, and Moss. This high-end EF4 tornado killed eight people, and was the largest tornado ever recorded in Mississippi state history. At 4:40 p.m. CDT, a second PDS watch was issued affecting extreme southeast Mississippi and most of Alabama, including the cities of Mobile, Montgomery, Tuscaloosa, and Birmingham.[83] Later, a deadly high-end EF2 tornado impacted the small community of Sumac, Georgia, destroying several mobile homes and killing eight people and injuring 24.[78] As the system progressed northeastward into the nighttime hours, another tornado emergency was issued, this time at 11:28 p.m. EDT for the towns of Ooltewah and Collegedale as a deadly EF3 tornado struck the eastern suburbs of Chattanooga, Tennessee, killing two and injuring 18.[84][85]

During the early morning hours April 13, the storms that formed the day before congealed into a strong squall line as they advanced into eastern Georgia and the Carolinas. Multiple embedded circulations and semi-discrete supercells within the line spawned numerous strong and deadly tornadoes across the region.[86][87] A total of 10 tornadoes of EF3 or greater strength occurred on day two of the outbreak, including eight in South Carolina, where nine tornado-related fatalities occurred. The most significant tornado that occurred on April 13 was a 3/4-mile wide EF4 in Hampton County, South Carolina that destroyed many homes and took the lives of five people near Estill and Nixville.[88] Another high-end EF3 struck Seneca, South Carolina, destroying multiple homes and a manufacturing plant, killing one person and injuring five.[78]
