There are several factors. First, New York has a relatively cool climate and as a result the atmosphere tends to be more stable and less prone to the severe thunderstorms needed to produce tornadoes. In addition, the fronts that occur are often not strong enough to produce tornadic thunderstorms and more often produce squall lines, which often produce damaging winds but not tornadoes. Wind shear is also not as strong there and strong wind shear is needed for the right kind of thunderstorm called a supercell.

Tornadoes are least common in winter and autumn.
Are tornadoes less likely to occur near the ocean?
No. In fact dues to the sea breeze being near the ocean can actually make it more likely that tornadoes will occur. Florida, for example, rivals Tornado Alley in number of tornadoes per area unit.
Why do you think there were more deaths with fewer tornadoes?
the fewer tornadoes the less prepared people are. like, tornadoes in California are very rare so people are not expecting it to happen. but when a tornadoes does hit California, people are not prepared and they have a greater chance of dieing.
