Tornadoes occur in Texas because it is in the center of Tornado Alley. This is a zone of the Midwest that receives a lot of wind current from the Rockies as well as the conflicting wind current moving from the Gulf of Mexico. This tends to cause the winds to roll and turns sideways causing a Tornado.
