There are a number of factors that lead to tornado season, which is primarily in the spring. This occurs because in the spring the lower atmosphere heats up while the upper atmosphere remains cold, creating instability that can lead to thunderstorms. Additionally, incursions of cold air from higher latitudes create fronts that can trigger thunderstorms. These thunderstorms can then go on to produce tornadoes.
