One likely reason tornadoes are so common in the central U.S is because this is where Arctic air, cold fronts that have not been "weakened" yet first collide with warm tropical air from the Gulf of Mexico. ... For this reason, tornadoes are not as common on the East Coast as they are in the Midwest.
