    Honorable Mentions
    As the 20th Century draws to a close, we have a chance to reflect on the events that shaped the past 100 years. Magazines, television networks and web sites around the world have created lists of the most influential events of the past century.

    At The Weather Channel, the obvious choice was to look back on the hurricanes, tornadoes, and blizzards that not only shattered records, they completely reshaped both landscapes and lives. The team of severe weather experts at The Weather Channel has put together their list of the 10 most remarkable and unforgettable storms to strike in the past century.

    Through stories, images, and survivors' accounts, weather.com presents the 10 storms that have more than earned their claim to the title, "Storms of the Century."
