Impacts: Since the 90s, the average number of tornadoes in Ohio has almost doubled, with the state seeing more tornadoes in the spring this year than any other year on record. Ohio typically sees 19 tornadoes a year, but the recent increase is striking.
To understand the impact of the eastward shift in “Tornado Alley” on Ohio, it’s important to note that scientists have observed this shift affecting the state. In the last 15 years, Ohio has experienced three record-breaking tornado seasons, indicating a change in weather patterns. This shift in tornado activity could be contributing to Ohio tying the state record for most tornadoes in a year.
