What biome do tornadoes most occur?
Tornadoes can occur in almost any biome, but appear to be most common in grassland regions.
Is there any place or time that tornadoes do not occur?
Yes. Tornadoes do not occur in Antarctica and likely do no occur in parts of the Arctic and in areas of extreme desert. There are many other regions that are cold or arid that tornadoes occur, but are extremely rare.
What is the percentage of thunderstorms do tornadoes occur?
Tornadoes occur in about 1% of thunderstorms.
Can tornadoes form at night?
Yes. Tornadoes can occur at any time of day or night. About 40% of all recorded tornadoes occur at night.
During what months do the most tornadoes most occur?
May is the month with the most tornadoesThe peak months for tornadoes is April, May and June. However, the most common month for tornadoes to occur is in May. May is the month with the highest frequency of tornadoes, but the most powerful tornadoes have seemed to occur a bit earlier in the year in April. April is the month when the most rare and gigantic F5 tornadoes happen. April also has the highest average number of deaths from tornadoes. Tornadoes can happen any time of the year if the conditions are right!
Where do tornadoes never occur?
Tornadoes do not occur in polar regions, such as Antarctica, or in extreme desert areas such as the Atacama.
Do tornadoes occur in Valley Regions?
Although Valleys themselves do not cause tornadoes, tornadoes can and do strike in valleys.
What biome do tornadoes most occur?
Tornadoes can occur in almost any biome, but appear to be most common in grassland regions.

Can tornadoes form around the world?
Just about. Tornadoes can occur almost anywhere apart from polar regions and extreme desert.
Do tornadoes occur in every place?
No. Only in regions that get thunderstorms. Polar climates and areas of extreme desert (such as the Atacama) do not experience tornadoes.

Both can occur in the tropics, though tornadoes are more common in temperate areas. All hurricanes form in the tropics but they can move into temperate regions.
What two regions in the US are tornadoes likely to occur?
tornado alley, okalahoma etc in that area
Why are tornadoes less likely to occur in the polar region?
Tornadoes are a product of thunderstorms, which are fueled by warm, moist air. Polar regions are too cold.
