Why do most tornadoes form in the Midwest of the united states?
The region is prone to collisions of air masses with a very large difference in temperature and/or moisture content. Such collisions produce strong thunderstorms. When wind speed and direction changes with altitude ( a condition called wind shear) can can cause the storms to intensify even further and sometimes start to rotate. Such powerful rotating storms, called supercells, are what produce the majority of tornadoes.
