Wild weather on Saturday - not so bad here in Tennessee, but bad tornadoes with fatalities in Mississippi...

that's bad, especially with fatalities. This might sound like an ignorant question, but how common are tornadoes in your neck of the woods? I've seen them mentioned occasionally on the news here, and they always look nasty.

The middle part of the US is known as "Tornado Alley", and is quite prone to those storms during the springtime. Tennessee is not officially in Tornado Alley, but we do get a few a year; they are more common to our south and west where the terrain is flatter. Tornadoes can be quite strong, too, with much higher winds (but generally rather less rain) than a tropical cyclone/hurricane. ...and it's not an ignorant question if you don't know the answer
