Tornado Alley Is Expanding, Hitting More Southern States Than Ever

The video discusses the expansion of Tornado Alley, now affecting areas like Dixie Alley in the southeast U.S. Tornado activity has increased in 20 states since 2020, possibly due to climate change. Tornadoes form when warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico meets dry air from the West, creating wind patterns that can lead to twisters. The Enhanced Fujita scale measures tornado strength, and predictions suggest an increase in tornadoes and severe storms. Legislation aims to improve forecasting and warnings, extending warning times from 15 minutes to one hour to enhance public safety.
