TRUTH !!
The USA experiences an average 1,200 tornadoes each year. Each State has
experienced at least one tornado over time. The state that has the fewest
tornadoes is Alaska, but even Alaska is not tornado free, with two reported
tornadoes since becoming a state (one in 1959 and one in 2006). Hawaii
averages one tornado per year.
Florida is one of the most tornado prone states, with only Texas, Kansas
and Oklahoma reporting more storms. During the period 1950 to 2006, Florida
reported 2,884 tornadoes according to NCDC figures.
The vast majority of tornadoes form in the late afternoon.
On June 3, 1980, the city of Grand Island, Nebraska was hit with seven
tornadoes in the space of three hours, one of which was an F-5 !
