Tornado Alley is a nickname given to an area in the southern plains of the central United States that consistently experiences a high frequency of tornadoes each year.

Tornadoes in this region typically happen in late spring and occasionally the early fall.

In the Great Plains region, warm moist air from the Gulf meets with cool, dry Rocky Mountain winds. When the competing masses meet, warm air rises and cool air sinks, creating a supercell, a very violent storm. If the two clashing air masses have different speeds, a funnel cloud is formed. When that cloud touches the ground it is classified as a tornado.

Tornadoes are more easily formed in regions with flat, dry terrain.
