It is difficult to determine right now as tornadoes are still being counted from a record outbreak. A good estimate, might be that there have been 350 to 400 tornadoes in the U.S. since April 9.
Does Kansas have tornadoes all the time?
I live in Kansas right now and was born here, I have been here for years. We don't have tornadoes all the time. Kansas averages nearly 100 tornadoes per year, though the number in any given year varies widely, and most of the tornadoes ae in the spring.
Have there always been tornadoes?
Yes. Or at least there have probably been tornadoes for as long has Earth has had approximately the same atmosphere that it has now.
Do tornadoes twirl from left to right?
Yes. Most tornadoes in the northern hemisphere spin counterclockwise, meaning if you were to watch a piece of debris it would move from left to right. However, most tornadoes in the southern hemisphere spin clockwise, meaning a piece of debris would move from right to left.

Tornadoes typically move in the direction of the prevailing winds, but they can also change direction due to the local terrain. Tornadoes can move downhill if the conditions are right, but it is not common.
Why are tornadoes so rare?
Tornadoes require a fairly specific set of conditions to develop. The factors have to come together in just the right way.
Why are there more tornadoes now then there were in 1965?
There aren't actually more tornadoes now, we're just better at detecting them. Back in 1965 we only had primitive weather radar and did not know where in a storm tornadoes would often form. As a result, we ended up missing most tornadoes of F1 and F0 strength, which we now know account for about 90% of tornadoes in the U.S. There were more significant (F2 or stronger) tornadoes in 1965 than there have been in any year in the past 39 years, suggesting that 1965 saw more tornado activity than actually occurs today.
