Greenlee County storms over time
The 1990s only run to 1992, so that bar is for a shorter period. This place's record starts in 1929, and records before the satellite era (about the 1960s) are far less complete.

Earlier decades hold fewer storms partly because they were harder to see. Before weather satellites (about the 1960s) many storms that stayed at sea went unrecorded, so compare decades with care.
