There are several factors that contribute to the high number of tornadoes in the US. The first is the unique geography of the country, with warm and moist air from the Gulf of Mexico colliding with colder air from Canada. This creates a favorable environment for the formation of tornadoes. Additionally, the vast open spaces and large-scale weather patterns in the US provide ample opportunities for the development of severe thunderstorms, which often spawn tornadoes.
