First a state's climate affects the number of tornadoes it get. Tornadoes form best when cool, dry air collides with warm moist air, generating thunderstorms, in an environment of strong wind shear and a temperature inversion a mile or so above the ground. Some areas, such as the Great Plains see such conditions more often than others. Other areas may be too cold, too dry, or don't see enough temperature variation.
The size of a state also matters. A large state has more area where a tornado may potentially occur.
