The true Tornado Alley covers portions of the states of Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Iowa, Colorado, and Missouri. Another major tornado-forming region in the U.S. is Dixie Alley, which covers parts of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and southern Tennessee. Florida also experiences high tornado activity, but unlike Tornado Alley and Dixie Alley is relatively lacking in strong tornadoes.

∙ 12y agoThere are many states located within the area known as "Tornado Alley." Although there is no "official" description, the area that lies between the Rocky Mountains and the Appalachian Mountains is accepted, in a general sense, as "Tornado Alley."
However, the primary area of the United States in which significant tornadoes occur most often is in an L-shaped region from Colorado to Iowa to Texas, with the highest threat being in Oklahoma. In addition, this area has a consistent season each year, from April through mid-June, with the most tornadoes normally occurring in May. These two facts (the high frequency of strong and violent tornadoes in this area and the relative consistency of the season from year to year) provide a natural, objective way to define "Tornado Alley."
