It depends on what area you define as Tornado Alley, as there are no officialli defined boundaries, but it appears that the region averages between 450 and 500 tornadoes per year.
Yes. Texas averages 150 tornadoes per year.
From 1990 to 2010 (for which accurate tornado records are available) Minnesota has averaged 44 tornadoes per year.
On average Birmingham gets hit by a tornado every two years.
No community gets hit with tornadoes every year. Evansville has been hit by a total of 5 tornadoes since official record keeping began in 1950. This works out to an approximate average of 1 tornado every 12 years.
Usually, but not always. Large tornadoes are usually more intense than strong ones. Many EF3 and stronger tornadoes are a quarter mile wide or more, but it is unusual to see EF0 and EF1 tornadoes that large. Regardless of strength a large tornado is likely to cause more damage simply because it covers a larger area.
Tornado Alley averages about 700 to 800 tornadoes per year.
Because it doesn't get as many tornadoes as tornado alley.
I'm not sure but since 2000 there was roughly about 7,000 that hit tornado ally.
It appears to have been one tornado.
In The average tornado there are no deaths. On average the U.S. gets over 1,200 tornadoes per year but only about 60 tornado deaths. The average death toll for a killer tornado (at least for the U.S.) is between 2 and 3, but this is skewed upwards by a handful of tornadoes with large death tolls. The typical death toll for a killer tornado is 1.
It varies widley. The typical lifespan of a tornado is a minute or two and many last just a few seconds. The most destructive tornadoes often last half an hour or more. At least two tornadoes are known to have lasted for over 3 hours.
The majority of U.S. tornadoes happen in Tornado Alley. However worldwide tornadoes are found in many regions,, though a large portion of these tornadoes are not documented.
The worst tornado on record, the Daulatpur-Saturia tornado that hit Bangladesh on April 26, 1989 was definitely more severe than a typical tornado. This tornado killed 1,300 and left 80,000 homeless. The damage path was 50 miles long, compared with a mile or two for a typical tornado, and was probably much larger and stronger than a typical tornado as well, though no details on that information are available. A typical tornado does not kill and is not strong enough to destroy most homes, though it may be different in Bangladesh where many homes are poorly built.
It varies. A typical tornado might travel about 5 kilometers. However, many tornadoes have path lengths of less than a kilometer. In rare cases a tornado may have a path lengths of 200 kilometers or more. The longest path ever recorded for a tornado was 352 kilometers.
Tornado Alley.
No. Tornadoes are not named like hurricanes are. Many tornadoes can be referred to by the town or state that they hit, such as the Tri-State tornado or the Joplin tornado.
Tornado Alley itself is not destructive, but the tornadoes that frequent it can be. The tornadoes in Tornado Alley destroy many homes each year.
