This is impossible to answer accurately. Although tornadoes can be tracked they are often difficult to publicly confirm until after the fact, especially for weak tornadoes. Further complicating the matter, tornadoes usually form and dissipate in a matter of minutes. So an answer given one minute might not be true in the next. As of the afternoon of July 13, 2013 there do not appear to be any tornadoes in the United States right now, but there is some small potential in the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys and the northwestern Great Plains. Data from other countries is not readily available.

Can tornadoes happen at night?
Yes, tornadoes can happen at any time as long as the weather is right.
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.
Does condensation cause tornadoes?
Not directly. Condensation can trigger thunderstorm. If these thunderstorms are strong enough and encounter the right conditions then they can produce tornadoes.
Are tornadoes caused by human nature or both?
Tornadoes are natural events caused by the right setup of weather conditions. Human-caused climate change may affect where and when tornadoes are most likely to occur, but tornadoes remain a primarily natural phenomenon.
Why do tornadoes hit certain areas?
Tornadoes need the right conditions in order to form. Convective instability, wind shear, and the temperature profile of the air are all factors that must come together in the right way for tornadoes to form. Climate affects all of these factors, so how often tornadoes occur in one area or another is due to climate.
Where are the tornadoes right now?
Currently, on November 24, 2010 there are no tornadoes occurring.
Does the earth have wind power right now?
yes it does by tornadoes
Where is the tornado right now?
As of the evening of December 24, 2012 there are no tornadoes currently on the ground.
Articles about a tornado that is happening right about now?
No such articles exist. Tornadoes do not last long enough for articles to be written about them as they occur.
How many tornadoes have hit the US since April 9 2011?
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.
Can tornadoes happen at night?
Yes, tornadoes can happen at any time as long as the weather is right.
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.
Does condensation cause tornadoes?
Not directly. Condensation can trigger thunderstorm. If these thunderstorms are strong enough and encounter the right conditions then they can produce tornadoes.
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.
Are tornadoes caused by human nature or both?
Tornadoes are natural events caused by the right setup of weather conditions. Human-caused climate change may affect where and when tornadoes are most likely to occur, but tornadoes remain a primarily natural phenomenon.
