Could this event go down as one of the biggest outbreaks in recorded history for the southeast?

Yes...again it started last night in Texas..same outbreak...Non=stop tornado warnings..and many reports no gaps in conformed tornadoes

150 tornadoes seems possible..many wind damage last night will be confirmed to be tornadoes

Yup. Huntsville, too.

I believe there are over half a million people in the greater Birmingham area.

Well over 1 million. The areas that are being hit so far are full of small towns, but the overall population density is actually fairly high.

If you are counting both days, then yes, I think we'll easily see over 150 tornado reports.

Keep in mind, the 148 tornados in the Super Outbreak was over a 24 hour period.
