Answer:
A majority of tornadoes that occur in the United States, occur in the Midwest and Southeast region of the United States.
Explanation:
Tornadoes can impact just about every U.S. state, but the majority of these storms are concentrated in states throughout the Midwest and Southeast. In fact, of the average 1,137 tornadoes that occur in the United States each year, 64% of them form in states located in “Tornado Alley” and “Dixie Alley”, two regions with a disproportionately high frequency of tornadoes due to atmospheric conditions that persist for long stretches of the year.
With an average of 140 tornadoes annually, Texas is the most tornado-prone state in the U.S., followed by Kansas with 80 and Florida with 59, according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration data.
