Tornadoes are more common along some places on the east coast, such as the Southeastern United States, due to the interaction of warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico and cool, dry air from the north. This creates favorable conditions for thunderstorms and tornado formation. Additionally, the flat terrain of the region allows for easier tornado formation compared to areas with more rugged topography.
