Unfortunately yes. Tornadoes are a routine event wherever the terrain is flat enough, which is most of the midwestern USA; Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri and Illinois. Parts of Kansas and Missouri are nicknamed "Tornado Alley" for the frequency of tornadoes.

Many farms in Kansas even have an underground tornado shelter; I'm sure you've seen the movie "The Wizard of Oz"?
