This applies mostly to tornadoes that form in mid-latitudes in the northern hemisphere, which includes the continental United States, where the greatest percentage of tornadoes form.

This stems largely from the fact that the large-scale storm systems that most tornadoes form in rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere, and while most form in the southeast quadrant of the system, they can form in other parts as well.
