Be prepared! Tornadoes generally spawn from thunderstorms, though they have been known to occur without the presence of lightning. The United States has the highest incidence of tornadoes worldwide, with more than 1,000 occurring every year. Tornadoes are more prevalent from April through July, with May and June being the peak months. But like thunderstorms, tornadoes can form any time of year. The area in which tornadoes are most prevalent is known as “tornado alley”, typically defined as the region from Texas north to Nebraska. But, of course, tornadoes can and do occur in every state in the country.
