What US state is both a part of tornado alley and a major hurricane landfall area?
That state would be Texas - although the parts of the state that get hurricanes and the part that is in tornado alley are rather far apart. The Gulf coast gets hurricanes. Tornado alley stretches down into the upper part of Texas near Oklahoma. Fortunately the two areas are hundreds of miles apart. Unfortunately hurricanes have been known to spawn some tornadoes so that even areas that are not part of tornado alley may get tornadoes in connection with a hurricane.
