El Paso can get tornadoes, but they are rare there. The last one on record there was in 1988. The reason they are rare is that the thunderstorms that spawn tornadoes need large quantities of moisture, which doesn't come along very often in El Paso's dry climate. Those few tornadoes that do occur near El Paso are weak, making it unlikely that they will be reported extensively.
