No. A tornado is a small scale short-lived weather event . Climate is the overall average weather pattern in an area over the course of 30 years or more. So a tornado will not affect the climate of a region.
Tornadoes are a result of specific weather conditions such as warm, moist air meeting cooler, drier air. While there is ongoing research on the relationship between climate change and tornado frequency/intensity, it is currently unclear if climate change directly causes tornadoes. Climate change may influence the conditions that can lead to tornado formation, but the direct link is not yet definitive.
Climate change may afftect tornado activity in some regions, but exactly how is uncertain. Some areas would experience more tornadoes and some would experience fewer.
There is some evidence that the most frequent tornado activity in Tornado Alley has shifted northward.
Possibly. There is some evidence that the most frequent tornado activity in Tornado Alley has shifted northward.
Tornadoes themselves are not directly caused by climate change, but there is evidence that a warming climate could lead to changes in atmospheric conditions that may affect tornado frequency or intensity. However, the relationship between tornadoes and climate change is complex, and more research is needed to fully understand the connection.
The climate of tornado alley is warm, humid air that usually travels from off the Gulf of Mexico.
No. Tornadoes are a natural phenomenon. The distribution and frequency of tornado may be altered by climate change, but it is uncertain how.

Tornadoes do not have any notable impact on climate.
A tornado is weather. Weather is the current condition of the atmosphere, or what the atmosphere does over a relatively short period of time. Climate is the overall weather pattern over the course of decades or more.
No. The apparent increase in tornado activity through the 20th century is the result of improved detection of smaller, weaker tornadoes. The activity of strong to violent (F2-F5) tornadoes in the United States has actually decreased overall since the 1950s and 1960s.
