Why is it that in the USA, tornadoes occur mainly during the summer and also in the afternoons?
melamori03 [73]
"1. moisture (water vapor) in the air near the surface
2.  instability - relatively large decrease of air temperature with height
3.  lift - some process (such as a front) that forces air to rise"

The air is dry during the summer and any moisture amount is increased in the afternoon as the temperature cools.
