The tornadoes that rip through the United States have a new high activity zone: The Southeast. This area of America has been hit hard in recent years, with many lives lost and homes destroyed by these powerful storms.
The most active tornado territory has shifted from Tornado Alley in the Midwest to Dixie Alley in the Southeast.
When people think of tornadoes, they often picture the terrifying twisters that spin up in Tornado alley. However Mississippi and Alabama make up of much of the new hotspot. Over recent years there have been a number destructive outbreaks across other parts of Dixie Alley. This doesn’t mean that other states are safe from these violent storms though; just look at what happened last month when strong tornados coasted across Kentucky.
Tornado Alley is not the most active spot any more. The most active tornado territory has shifted from Tornado Alley in the Midwest to Dixie Alley in the Southeast. People need to realize this and take precautions, especially if they live in a southern state. Make sure you have a plan in case of a tornado emergency and keep yourself and your family safe.
