There were 325 tornadic fatalities from the April 25-28 2011 tornado outbreak of which 320 were on April 27.
It is a close one, but it appears not. Damage totals for the latest outbreak have not been estimated and it is likely that not all tornadoes have been counted for. The outbreak of March 2, 2012 killed 40 people while the outbreak of April 27-30 2014 killed 37, including three deaths from flooding and severe thunderstorm winds.
Most supercells do not kill, and those that do kill rarely kill more than a few. The main threat for a supercell is the potential for tornadoes, and a supercell can produce multiple tornadoes in succession in what is called a tornado family, which can, in rare cases, kill dozens. In recent years one tornado family on April 27, 2011 killed 87 people in 3 killer tornadoes, and another on the same day killed 69 people in 6 tornadoes. On May 22, 2011 a supercell killed 158 people, all from a single tornado.
To date the have been no F5 or EF5 tornadoes in Georgia, though it has had a few F4 and EF4 tornadoes. However, one tornado is worth noting. The Rainsville, Alabama EF5 tornado of April 27, 2011 moved into Georgia where it caused some damage, however the only EF5 damage occurred in Alabama. Damage in Georgia was no higher than EF1 as the tornado was near the end of its life cycle when it crossed the state line. As such, it does not count as an EF5 for Georgia.
