It is located down the middle of the United Sates, and the states that are included in the Tornado Alley are Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and such.How does a tornado form ?.1 Wind shearWind at different speed and directions with changing altitude make something called wind shear, which can start thunderstorms spinning.2. SpinningIt will eventually spin faster and the higher speed will be the bottom of it ..3 TornadogenesisA downdraft triggered by this intensification of the bottom of the rotation tightens the circulation and extends it toward the ground, forming a tornado.
How many tornado per year in Iowa?

If you mean April 2011 the title for the largest tornado is a tie between an EF3 near Pocahontas, Iowa on April 9 that destroyed a few farms and the EF4 that devastated Tuscaloosa, Alabama on April 27. Both tornadoes were 1.5 miles wide.
How are tornadoes formandwherethey are most likely to happen?
The formation of tornadoes is complicated.First, a condition called wind shear, in which the speed or direction of the wind changes with altitude. If the shear is strong enough it can essentially tilt a thunderstorm, this separates the updraft and downdraft of the thunderstorm, preventing them from interfering with one another. This allows the storm to become stronger and last longer.Additionally, if the wind shear is strong enough it can start the air rolling in what is called horizontal vorticity. This horizontal vorticity can then be turned vertical by a thunderstorm's updraft. When this happens, the thunderstorm may start rotating. The rotation is especially strong in an updraft called a mesocyclone. If the storm intensifies rapidly enough, a relatively warm downdraft called a rear-flank downdraft or RFD can wrap around the bottom part of the mesocyclone. This can then tighten and intensify its rotation and bring it down to the ground to produce a tornado.Tornadoes are most likely to form in a region called Tornado Alley in the central United States. This region stretches from Texas to South Dakota and into Iowa.
