PHOTOGRAPH BY NASA/NOAA GOES PROJECT When Americans imagine tornadoes, many tend to think of them churning through plains states like Kansas or Oklahoma. But destructive twisters strike hard in a very broad area of the eastern United States. The tornadoes that have left at least 31 dead over the past two daysâwreaking havoc in Arkansas, Kansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, and elsewhereâare not extraordinary in terms of their strength, location, or numbers.
Tornadoes occur in many parts of the world, including Australia, Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America. Even New Zealand reports about 20 tornadoes each year. Two of the highest concentrations of tornadoes outside the U.S. are Argentina and Bangladesh. Tornado WATCH is issued by the NOAA Storm Prediction Center meteorologists who watch the weather 24/7 across the entire U.S. for weather conditions that are favorable for tornadoes. A watch can cover parts of a state or several states.
