Among the most destructive forces on the planet, recent years have shown tornados to be responsible for an average of 62 deaths annually in the United States. 2011 has proven to be the deadliest year for tornados since 1953, when 519 people were killed (according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration).
U.S. residents in 26 states live in High Risk Wind Zones, with tornados and hurricanes producing winds in excess of 200 miles per hour.
