Yes, a tornado can hit anywhere in the U.S., Spain, Australia, and a few other countries. But here in the U.S., tornadoes often hit in the Midwest (from middle Illinois and Indiana to Texas and the southern states.) Illinois, Missouri, Iowa, Texas, Indiana, Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Louisiana, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Mississippi. These are the states hit the most in the U.S., but a tornado can hit anywhere at anytime of the year.
