@@elijahsmall5873 Except that’s not how she framed it at all lol.. as if she was talking about two different alleys lol she was implying that the main tornado alley is shifting east as if she didn’t know dixie alley even existed lol she didn’t mention anything about how they both have different prime seasons or talk about them as if they were two separate things.. she entirely framed it as one thing.. lol DEI to the rescue again eh
Just as an FYI tornado alley moves over the period of a year. It starts in Dixie Alley in Jan-Mar, Traditional Alley from Apr-Jun, to the high plains during the dog days. It’s then slowly reverses back to Dixie Alley over the fall. However, this traditional path is moving, which is the emphasis of this video.
You are right about the main risk areas shifting through the year based on weather patterns…it’s not necessarily changing though, we have only been tracking tornadoes scientifically for less than 75 years and we have only had really good data for the last 30 or so…to pretend the entire cycle is off course or changing on a macro scale due to our limited timetable of data is ridiculous, and mixing in the academic brainwashing of “climate change” is beyond…skirting on the edge of idiotic and total bs
Weld County, Colorado (the county that I live in) has the most recorded number of tornadoes than any other county in the country. However they tend to be between an EF0-2 and the county is mostly farm land so nobody ever hears about them on the news.
@@Kenzthekid645 it's the terrain,they do hit the same areas, some more than others. There is a spot east of Big Rapids Michigan that takes a house or 2 every other year or so. Remus Michigan is in a hole for the same reason,and wasn't a house west of town for a ways.
TORNADO ALLEY WILL ALWAYS BE TORNADO ALLEY. NOTHING HAS CHANGED! We had an EF4 hit my neighborhood 3 years ago in Kansas and not too long before that! My daughter almost got sucked up by an EF5. Some uesss are always busier than others! Do ur research. For instance this week we have 4 days strait of Severe weather. Tornados and all. This is OUR tornado season! Sure they come at other times but this is when it’s mostly busy. Some years we have a few while some years we can have over 200! It’s never changed ! Some states have several one year that aren’t in tornado alley and then for 10 years they see maybe 2. It’s not that hard to figure this stuff out. Been here in Kansas for 42 years! This person has NO IDEA what they’re talking about lol
@@jogirl836 I’m from the south, I have had 2 this month, I’m aware of tornadoes. I was confused on this girls reporting. (I’m glad you and your family are okay)
I think the fact that the radar coverage has improved significantly and ability to identify tornadoes when they happen has an impact on the number and spread of tornadoes recently.
That and more people are chasing in Dixie Alley now, which means the smaller ones that went unnoticed are being counted (and radar is better). The same bump happened when we started using better radar in the 80's.
They are not basing this solely on how many tornadoes happen there. The data maps she shows in the video show favorable tornado days, not actual tornadoes. These numbers have been tracked for 3 to five decades and are showing changing conditions and increased activity.
The number of tornadoes per day affects the number of favorable tornado days. Also 'favorable tornado days' is kind of misleading, as you can have many elements necessary for tornadoes to occur and yet you won't see any.
@@TheJesselopez1981everything weather wise goes in cycles. It will heat up for a couple of decades, then cool down a couple. Hurricane numbers rise, then they fall. Been going on for centuries
@user-mk5pn5zm6i they don't heat up as fast as they have been. We have been breaking records for the past few years. Every climate scientist agrees, human driven climate change due to greenhouse gas emissions is the cause. But please tell us how you know more than the collective agreement of scientists and all the data collected.
Huh. I always thought Tornado Alley was more about the geography of the Great Plains than the weather. Fascinating! Now it makes sense why I always thought Missouri was part of Tornado Alley...
@TinyLuvsBostons Except climate change IS real and has been forever. Ever before we pesky humans got involved. I know you right wing bumpkins who burn three gallons of gas in your Ramarado F-30000 Super Dick Duty God Ranch Double Texas Edition with Bacon and Cheese pickup trucks while waiting in the McDonald's drive thru don't like to hear that, but the data supports it.
I think they’re just less aware of it down there. When people think tornado town they think Oklahoma. And all those horrible ones back in the day in Mississippi could be related to poverty. Mississippi is a more poor state from what I know.
It started being called that by the storm chasers because the storms there are so much less rain wrapped and the plains are so much safer to chase in for obvious reasons. People just adopted the terminology
It's not moving. There are several areas where tornados are frequent and are referred to as "alleys", the Plains states ARE tornado alley, the southeast is Dixie Alley, Hoosier/The Ohio Valley are also things. El Nino and La Nina tend to change WHERE tornadoes MOSTLY occur during any given season due to the way the jet stream shifts which can change/limit advection. Any Meteorologist will tell you it's not moving and this year is a great example where we have seen MANY Tornadoes in "Tornado Alley" when you look at the data you have to remember most outbreaks are single day events, not multi-day events. 2011 is not the rule so when we talk about "favorable tornado days" it's a slightly inaccurate way to look at things. Oh also because we now live in a world where everyone carries a camera on them it's a LOT easier to report and verify tornadoes. To summarize the eastern US has ALWAYS gotten plenty of tornadoes and "Tornado Alley" isn't ACTUALLY shifting according to EVERY credible study performed by Meteorologists.
Even more confusingly they blamed the extreme weather "moving" SOUTH AND EAST on climate change somehow, as if to imply higher latitudes getting warmer makes that happen???
For all the commenters who are screaming "no, there's always been Dixie Alley" You missed the point. She is talking about the change in the number of tornados appearing in one place vs another over a period of decades. Right? Got that? It isn't that difficult to grasp. She is NOT saying there were no tornados further East before, Nor is she saying that tornados have stopped further West. SHE IS SAYING THERE HAS BEEN A NOTABLE CHANGE IN THE STATISTICS ABOUT HOW MANY APPEAR WHERE.
@@lsctron Americans, well at least about 30% of them, can clearly get mad about absolutely anything. I remember when they were whining like fuck about "the horror" of having to have a tiny bit of paper over their mouth and nose. My father, who lived through WW2 in London - blackout, rationing(till almost the 1960s), any home being requisitioned by the government for war purposes, soldiers being billeted at any house, children put on trains and sent to live with strangers etc., not to mention the bombs.- said he could not believe that they had the nerve to call themselves "patriots", his exact words, "the most pathetic, whiny, selfish, cunts who've ever existed...apologies to all cunts, one of my favourite body parts."
Dixie alley has always existed. But what a lot of people here seem to be missing is that the point is it’s becoming more active while traditional tornado alley is becoming less active.
Strawman argument. She never said that Dixie Alley never existed. She said that even more are occuring there, and fewer tornadoes are occurring in the historic tornado alley over the past 30 years.
@@APOCALYPSE_X-MENThere are two distinct tornado seasons in Louisiana, minus tropical storm spin-offs. Our first is March through May, and our second is from October through December. That is the time that the weather systems that are favorable for tornados,as it migrates east to west, and then west to east. There is no true “tornado alley”. That said, Louisiana has experienced tornados, every month of the year.
Does it hurt to be this wrong? You're talking about Dixie alley, a part of the country that has always been known to experience violent tornadoes, some even saying it's worse than tornado alley. And lake mead? It's a man made lake in the middle of the desert. Deserts, by definition, don't experience a lot of rain. Of course the lake is going to dry up
Yes people need to stop sayinf Lake Tahoe is being drained by climate change. The population doubled over the decades so demand is higher. Also, this lake was man made. In the 1930’s (when summers were still the hottest on record) this lake did not exist
You are talking about Dixie Alley, and the top 4 tornado outbreaks of all time have had a storm mode in Dixie. The April 3, 1974 Super Outbreak had its southern storm mode over Dixie, as did the March 31, 2023 tornado outbreak. Both the Easter Sunday 2020 Outbreak and the April 27, 2011 Super Outbreak were ENTIRELY in Dixie. Dixie has always been the true “tornado alley”
The changes she is talking about have been tracked for decades. Dixie alley has more recently caught up to tornadoes alley in terms of numbers of tornadoes.
Bingo, the moment anyone mentions climate change in a serious conversation you know most of what they believe is lies. Very dangerous people because they knowingly or unknowingly end up deceiving everyone around them.
Bingo, the moment anyone mentions CC in a serious conversation you know what they believe is mostly lies. ( Third time trying to post this comment, yt just hates the truth lol)
The west has had droughts for hundreds of years in the past and the ocean waters have been hotter than they are now but since it hasn't happened since they started keeping records people are freaking out. The earth was hotter and drier during the roman empire than it is now.🤔
Yes, I imagine it pivots around a sort of axis as a result of major weather phenomena like ENSO as well as minor phenomena that we don't pay all that much attention to.
The more you deny this and act like it’s normal, the worse it’ll get under your nose, until you suffer in a sea of your own delusions. I hope you all drown in the rising sea levels while you convince yourself it’s just the toilet acting up.
Nope, stop driving your car, turn the lights off, and walk slowly as not to create too much carbon. The weather was completely stable until humans came along, and cows, friggen cow farts are terrible for the environment.
I just moved to Texas. We got hit by 2 tornadoes in the span of only one week. We are still very much getting lots of tornadoes in regular tornado alley. El Nino is back which means more storms. There was hardly any rain these past 3 years when La Nina was in charge.
THANK YOU! I’m in KS and this is NOTHING new. These people must be really young bc this is the way it’s ALWAYS been for us! TORNADO ALLEY WILL ALWAYS BE TORNADO ALLEY. NOTHING HAS CHANGED!

Tennessee, the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, Alabama.. pretty much every southern Atlantic and Gulf State has seen this increase. There's also a region known locally as "Carolina Alley" around the I85 and I95 corridors of the Carolinas.
Dixie alley has always been a thing. It’s based off where convection occurs. Early on it’s in the southeast (Dixie alley) and as the season goes on convection “tends” to move west to southern plains, then north t through central plains to the dakotas. This year El Niño patterns pushed storms a bit east to Illinois. But tornado alley is still tornado alley.
@@LisaBeergutHolst the title of the video. Tornado alley has and will always be the plains. Dixie alley will always be the southeast. Tornado alley doesn’t move. Dixie alley just becomes more active based on convection.
@@Motiv.Officialyou're still not stating anything contrary to the video. These trends have been tracked for the last 3 to 5 decades and have shown an increase in Dixie alley. They are not saying there were never tornadoes in Dixie alley.
As an amateur meteorologist, I disagree. I believe it has expanded. Tornado Alley will always be Tornado Alley. It was still busy this year. There are other zones, like Dixie, Hoosier and Carolina Alleys. I will never agree that it has "moved" but expanded eastward.
Thank you! People do NOT do their research. Anyone can look up the numbers and how many Tornado Alley has each year compared to all other states and it always usually has more BUT TORNADO ALLEY WILL ALWAYS BE TORNADO ALLEY.

@@jogirl836I hope you've stayed safe today, I think it's a prime example of why tornado Alley has not actually moved; I've always believed Oklahoma never got as many tornadoes we just got more dangerous tornadoes compared to a place like Arkansas or Mississippi that gets closer to like 37 but they are smaller typically.
@@Zionist654 yeah ok, we KNOW what tornadoes are like, it's not like it's anything new down here. Our tornados are a lot faster than in the plains. Ours may not live as long bc of hills/mountains. Forward motion are higher here as well.
*Climate change is not a factor for instability. It warms the average temperature overall in the year, but we haven’t seen a major moisture/instability event during the tornado season over the last few years.
Lake Mead isn't the issue, it's simply one of the signs. Lake Mead's water level is based on the snowpack of the Colorado mountains during the winter. The more snow, the more water when it melts. The water flows into Lake Powell and then gets released into Lake Mead. Last year the lake levels dropped so quickly because Lake Powell closed off and wouldn't let any water out for Lake Mead. This year the snowpack was great! there was plenty of water and Powell opened the gates again, letting water into Mead. But it will take about a decade's worth of these "good snowpack" to get Mead back to where it was. I'm hopeful that the drought is showing signs of being over, but it is possible it was just a good year this last year and then it's going to go back to drought. Time will tell with that. And time will tell if the record heat waves that came this year were just a fluke or sticking around for years to come.
"Tornado alley" is the point of contact where the two major air masses join to create the dangerous weather that spawns tornados. At the beginning of the season this point of contact is closer to the gulf coast and slowly works it's way to the rockies throughout the year. Then it starts to work it's way back down to the gulf coast in the later part of the season. That's why tornado outbreaks typically happen in certain parts of the year in certain areas of the year. The concept of "tornado alley" moving is just an increase in people using modern technology to document the tornados that happen in random secluded areas of the country. The tornados were always there. We just see them easier.
The southeast is also much more densely populated than much of the old tornado alley area. It's always had a fair amount of tornado activity before this movement. The areas that could afford emergency warning alarm systems have had them for years now.
I don’t think tornado alley is moving. It’s just getting more common in certain places. Here in Oklahoma, our May was somewhat chill, we haven’t had a lot of rotation. However, today we’re in a 4/5 risk of serve weather. It’s like it popped out of nowhere. 90mph wind, tornado risk, and baseball sized hail. I don’t think tornado alley is shifting as a whole.
I'm a Native Californian, who had to move to Tulsa, OK, when dad was transferred, working on the Apollo Program. Yes, Tornado Alley covers more than people think: all the mostly flat plain states, North and South, through Central America. It's mostly been grouped towards TX, OK, MO, hook to NE, because of terrain. Dixie Alley is similar, cuts off by the Appalachians, IIRC? Regardless, we've had a rather bizarre weather pattern for 10 years, which kept California in drought status: H pressure system, upper Pacific Coast, held there for almost the entirety of 10 years. I'm no Hurricane expert, but I do follow them. Last year, the Atlantic Hurricanes seemed to be coming closer to the Yucatan Peninsula, I think one might've even crossed over to the Pacific? We had El Nino going over here, and then 6 day, powerful storm, Hurricane Hillary went right up the coast, into S CA, then people found it freaky, that it seemed rather polite, in following N up the 10 freeway, turned W onto the 91, gained a bit of strength as it got closer to the ocean, then turned N up the 405, before degrading into showers. It may not look like it to many, but it was pulling moisture from the Pacific Ocean, which began to help break things up over here. We soon began having wave, after wave, of Pineapple Expresses from Hawaii, coming over us! Which went towards the E Plains, after the Rockies. If anyone's flown over the Rockies in a small commuter plane, in the tail bathroom in a thunderstorm? You've joined a much smaller club, than any other 😅 You know what all those handrails are for! Regardless, all of this, combined with the Atmospheric rivers, got changed! If in a video game, you'd say that Boss level activated! ALL storms go from W to E! That's why Tornadoes tend to move, NE. Twisters do whatever the up & down drafts, with circular motion, allows them to. I gotta tell you, though: after being a survivor of twin EF5 tornadoes, that wreaked devastation from Mannford over to Pawnee, one hot June day? It was like watching a storm backwards as a child. It's also a day that I disobeyed my parents, ran into the grocery store, looking for them, yelled tornadoes! Sky's pillowing, and turned green! Get to shelter!! Did that, 10 min before the sirens went off. Never understood why my parents made a run for it, against that multi cell tornado storm. I can only tell you, most of the damage was N of us, but we weren't safe. This years STORM CELLS are very much like the one my fam survived. They seem to spawn, after something backed up, such as the H pressure system sat for 10 years, gets moved! Irregardless of the reasons - it does break free, periodically. Then we have not just Tornado Alley - a Nexus point, where all Tornado Alleys combine, uber storm cells traveling across entire swaths of all alleys!
Louisiana here, can confirm the alley has shifted. When I was young we had hurricanes. They're incredible forces of nature in their own right, but yiu can see em coming 100 miles away. Now we got tornadoes coming through and it's way more terrifying. No basements or storm cellars to hide in down here. Crazy times
I kind of noticed that but we've been in La Nina and the jet stream has been off. We're cooler and not getting the ground zero between the cold dry and the warm moist with a higher temp. It's all been north or east or south of us SE KS/NE OK. And our homes are being built with new timber lumber and just cannot hold up. You need a fraidy hole.
I was talking about this on and off for a few months to friends, I live in SC and we used to rarely get tornados or even hear of them, now it's just about every other thunderstorm we have a tornado somewhere in the state.
@Katie E. Same here. I live in Chicago and we never had tornadoes just after effects of rain and heavy wind. Just last year early July, we had one closer than ever before! Green skies and heavy rain then that wind came in like no other, it was scary!
@tonyagriffin5443 oh ok, it's looks real interesting seeing that happen. I was always into science of how tornadoes worked and other things behind it and other weather conditions. Looks really cool and scary at the same time! Last year was the first time I've ever seen the sky turn that green in Chicago! There was definitely a lot of heavy heavy rain!🌧🌩🌪

Destroying Americans citizens sovereignty over their energy needs only empowers other nations to profit off of high oil profits which they use to fund war (look at Russia!)

And they neglect trees need C02 to grow and trees take out so much C02 it’ll blow your mind. Reality is there haven’t been more tornadoes or anything really. Look at old photos of the Statue of Liberty. Water level is the same. Humans have a remarkable ability to adapt to the environment and the only solution climate activists have is to handicap the advancement of society, which is by definition counter-productive.
I live in New Jersey, and it appears that the northeastern-most point of Tornado Alley has relocated to NJ. We had a tornado touch down a few weeks ago, about 12 miles from my house, which meant an EF2 within 40 miles of Manhattan!That's a pretty frightening thought.
I notice that nj been having more tornados then usual since ida hurricane when they had a tornado outbreak im from staten island i fear soon were going to soon start having tornado and then its going to be other borough in new york as well
I think we can officially put the "Tornado Alley is moving" stuff to bed after the start to the year that Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and Nebraska is having.
It’s important to note, tornadoes overall in the US have been declining the past few decades, but context matters, more tornadoes are happening east of the Mississippi River with less occurring west of it. Here in New Jersey we have had record number of Tornadoes the past few years, especially in 2023. We also got a lot of tornadoes from Ida’s remnants back in 2021 (which also flooded my state, was the second most destructive tropical cyclone to hit my state only behind Sandy). But back to Tornadoes, definitely interesting to see how climate change is affecting it.
Dixie ally has gotten pretty active this year. Last year though had 3 EF5s and 1 of them were long lived and a recycled tornado. It turned houses into dust with just the foundation scattered everywhere. And it was unexpected to. So then as soon as the radar showed the rotation, the NWS issued a tornado emergency, the highest level warning for a tornado.
Earth's natural processes don't need to prove themselves to an idiot. Just because you can't comprehend how millions upon cubic millions of CO2 into the atmosphere can change climate doesn't mean it isn't happening.
Bottom line, weather events are changing from "traditional norms" and they are definitely becoming more extreme. Those who felt they were safe before have now experienced one of these events in recent years. Stay alert my friends!
We keep missing storms in Houston. It was very wet when I was growing up. Last year, lots of people lost 20 year old bushes and trees to drought. I see the rain but it's 100 miles north of us.
I don't know the science. But I grew up in northeast Arkansas and now live about 20 minutes west of six flags in Missouri. I can confirm that the threat has always seemed to be there for tornadoes in my lifetime. I've personally seen the damage left behind and that alone is enough to make me not take any chances. It's one thing to see a twister way off in the middle of nothing but it's a whole other feeling to come up recording in a residential area that's just been devastated and then to have to hop out and help people. All while hearing them cry and mourn people they just lost. It's eye opening and it isn't a feeling I can ever forget.
No, Dixie Alley is not some new phenomenon at all! Historically there have been well documented violent and deadly tornadoes across the South from before the Civil War. For example, Natchez, MS was hit by a very deadly tornado in 1840. That particular tornado in Natchez back in 1840 s still ranks as one the country's most deadly tornadoes in history. So these tornadoes in the South are not something new at all.
The climate is always changing from summer to fall to winter to spring and back to summer. Some years there’s more tornadoes here and some years there’s more there
The last 3 years, where I live in Oklahoma didn’t have many bad storms for first time in my existence. I think it’s one reason this past weekend was so traumatic for everyone here. Not only did they come back, they came back in a way we’ve never seen, w the tornado trains .
I don't think that tornado Alley is necessarily shifting east that much because you will still have tornadoes in the traditional Great Plains, and the 1965 Palm Sunday and 1974 Super Outbreak are 2 pieces of evidence that to me suggest that tornado Alley ISN'T moving east, since there are multiple areas of the U.S. that see tornadoes: Dixie Alley in the South and Hoosier Alley in Indiana are 2 examples. I could be wrong but I personally think Tornado Alley isn't shifting that much to the east, thanks to again the 1965 and 1974 outbreaks.
I was thinking that the other day. I'm Oregon, but my boy in Illinois has been sharing his weather and then with the news lately... Yeah. Thanks for the confirmation. ❤️🔥🤘
It's not just dixie alley tbh. The traditionally defined "tornado alley" has actually also shifted a bit east. dixie alley has also shifted a bit south if I recall correctly.
What makes Tornado Alley different from Dixie alley is that Tornadoes look for Flat land to build up steam and the tornadoes can build into monsters while tornadoes in the Dixie alley are more short lived from hitting hills and getting Rain rapped.
Climate change is the climate changing. That can mean warming, cooling, drying, etc. it’s changed many times just our current epoch, it has led to warmer waters, colder waters, more rainfall, less rainfall, etc. Of course it can cause things to warm up.
@@MP-et1eu Like I said, it doesn't "warm" anything. It is the result of myriad variables, not an actor. The radiant energy of the sun "warms" the earth.
A few clarifications here. Tornado alley does not "move". The Central-East US is a prime area for convection which involves warm gulf air meeting cold arctic air. Where this convection happens changes every single year depending on the season. In the winter that convection happens further south, in the Summer it happens further north. In the spring and fall it happens in the midwest. This is why you see tornados as far south as florida and as far north as canada. Climate change isn't responsible for any changing in tornado alley nor is it "moving east". That isn't to say climate change isn't happening, it is, but it isn't to blame. As many have pointed out, the region you are discussing is called "Dixie Alley". This is the nickname given to Mississippi, Tennessee, and Alabama. There are just as many tornados here as there are in the Midwest, just at different times of the year, and often due to a lack of infrastructure they often are far more fatal, with Alabama and Mississippi having the highest Tornado Deaths per year and per decade. tldr tornado alley isnt moving, it never was and likely never will unless earth gets conditions similar to Venus (which won't happen in any of our lifetimes, or the lifetime of humanity for that matter). Climate change isn't responsible for any correlation in events with where tornados occur.
I always find it interesting how black people are all we dont trust nobody especially the government everything is racist everything is out to bring us down but then they are first in line to get jabbed up and accept the climate change lie. Always first in line to follow the oppressors. It's really no surprise what happened to them in the past happened they probably told them a deadly disease is going around and a flood is coming get on the boat with us and come to the new world to be safe.
2024 is looking like a more classic with peak tornado season expected in May (which hasn't been the case in the past few years). Tornado alley is also expected to be more active while Dixie Alley may be less active.
When the comments section is more informed than the content creator trying to inform them. And let's be more specific here: VIOLENT tornadoes have been moving in Dixie Ally for the past 30+ years.
Um, 6 of the 10 deadliest tornadoes of all time were in Dixie Alley. Only one recently, Joplin. The rest between 1840 and 1936. You should probably delete this embarrassing comment.
Mason Dixon line. That's moving. Tornado ally is Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma. Then picks up through Indiana and Illinois Ohio. ALSO Tennessee and Kentucky Alabama Mississippi.The states listed here are thick as leaves in the fall. We get tornadoes in December.
I remembered this one tornado hit a town just south where I’m living at in late August 1998. It was close towards my mother’s birthday. My sister was staying at my parents home when it happened. It was on a Sunday evening just before 7pm. All of the lights were out. I went to bed. I woke up just a little bit after 9pm my neighbor was yelling at another neighbor. I went back to sleep till 3am. I have to start to work at 5am. I didn’t bother to go to work since the power was out till 10:30am. I did ride my bike towards my parents house. I got so bored at home. I never did go towards my grandmother’s apartment near me.
To everyone who is saying that it's "Dixie Alley" and has always been there, the word "Dixie" is now considered a derogatory term for certain people and the new proper term will be now and forever known as "Martin Luther King, Jr. Alley" and should be celebrated as such with the month of May designated for the reflection and teaching of the reason why it was wrong to call it "Dixie Alley" in a time when the words you use may bring back memories of a time long ago that instills fear and hatred amongst the people who cannot let go of the past and live a normal life like the majority of the country. Thank you and please remember, "Martin Luther King, Jr. Alley" and stop using the derogatory term "Dixie."
its' likely more accurate due to the relatively recent data & trends. Unless you think we can go backwards with our climate it's likely gonna be the new norm.
If Tornado alley has moved south and east, that means the cold front is moving further south. It seems this is evidence of cooling if the fronts are colliding further south.
30 decades ago? You mean 30 years ago. I don’t we have good enough observation data 300 years ago to even tell whether tornado concentration has moved.
This is Dixie Alley woman. It’s been here longer than your parents have been alive. Central AL right here…. I will confirm we have as many tornadoes as tornado alley. Forget about the April, 15-26, 2011…. What about 74 super outbreak??? Yeah, this isn’t new. We had EF-4s and 5s before the 40s…. Heck we got a town (I forgot the name, as ima have to edit this when I do remember it) that is supposedly haunted after being wiped clean in the 20s.
Dixie Alley has always been there. Its not the "new area" or new Tornado Alley.
Exactly!

@@darthsilversith667god damn you are dumb
Just as an FYI tornado alley moves over the period of a year. It starts in Dixie Alley in Jan-Mar, Traditional Alley from Apr-Jun, to the high plains during the dog days. It’s then slowly reverses back to Dixie Alley over the fall. However, this traditional path is moving, which is the emphasis of this video.
You are right about the main risk areas shifting through the year based on weather patterns…it’s not necessarily changing though, we have only been tracking tornadoes scientifically for less than 75 years and we have only had really good data for the last 30 or so…to pretend the entire cycle is off course or changing on a macro scale due to our limited timetable of data is ridiculous, and mixing in the academic brainwashing of “climate change” is beyond…skirting on the edge of idiotic and total bs
I've lived around Memphis for 35 years, you better have a cellar!!
These changes have been tracked for the last 3 to 5 decades. Dixe Alley has caught up to Tornado Alley in terms of numbers of tornadoes.
Weld County, Colorado (the county that I live in) has the most recorded number of tornadoes than any other county in the country. However they tend to be between an EF0-2 and the county is mostly farm land so nobody ever hears about them on the news.
@@Kenzthekid645 it's the terrain,they do hit the same areas, some more than others. There is a spot east of Big Rapids Michigan that takes a house or 2 every other year or so. Remus Michigan is in a hole for the same reason,and wasn't a house west of town for a ways.
So we are going to act like there were never Tornados in the Southeast haha
right?! haha what is she talking about??
TORNADO ALLEY WILL ALWAYS BE TORNADO ALLEY. NOTHING HAS CHANGED! We had an EF4 hit my neighborhood 3 years ago in Kansas and not too long before that! My daughter almost got sucked up by an EF5.

Sure they come at other times but this is when it’s mostly busy. Some years we have a few while some years we can have over 200! It’s never changed ! Some states have several one year that aren’t in tornado alley and then for 10 years they see maybe 2. It’s not that hard to figure this stuff out. Been here in Kansas for 42 years!

@@jogirl836 I’m from the south, I have had 2 this month, I’m aware of tornadoes. I was confused on this girls reporting. (I’m glad you and your family are okay)
@OP We're not going to act like tornado alley doesn't go all the way up to Canada as well.
I think the fact that the radar coverage has improved significantly and ability to identify tornadoes when they happen has an impact on the number and spread of tornadoes recently.
That and more people are chasing in Dixie Alley now, which means the smaller ones that went unnoticed are being counted (and radar is better). The same bump happened when we started using better radar in the 80's.
They are not basing this solely on how many tornadoes happen there. The data maps she shows in the video show favorable tornado days, not actual tornadoes. These numbers have been tracked for 3 to five decades and are showing changing conditions and increased activity.
The number of tornadoes per day affects the number of favorable tornado days. Also 'favorable tornado days' is kind of misleading, as you can have many elements necessary for tornadoes to occur and yet you won't see any.

Maybe it’s just me but I’ve always considered Dixie alley the “real” tornado alley. They’ve had far more devastating tornadoes
More people
@@nuckels188 not more ppl, less farm land.
I think they’re just less aware of it down there. When people think tornado town they think Oklahoma. And all those horrible ones back in the day in Mississippi could be related to poverty. Mississippi is a more poor state from what I know.
It started being called that by the storm chasers because the storms there are so much less rain wrapped and the plains are so much safer to chase in for obvious reasons. People just adopted the terminology
Well it’s not.
It's not moving. There are several areas where tornados are frequent and are referred to as "alleys", the Plains states ARE tornado alley, the southeast is Dixie Alley, Hoosier/The Ohio Valley are also things. El Nino and La Nina tend to change WHERE tornadoes MOSTLY occur during any given season due to the way the jet stream shifts which can change/limit advection. Any Meteorologist will tell you it's not moving and this year is a great example where we have seen MANY Tornadoes in "Tornado Alley" when you look at the data you have to remember most outbreaks are single day events, not multi-day events. 2011 is not the rule so when we talk about "favorable tornado days" it's a slightly inaccurate way to look at things. Oh also because we now live in a world where everyone carries a camera on them it's a LOT easier to report and verify tornadoes. To summarize the eastern US has ALWAYS gotten plenty of tornadoes and "Tornado Alley" isn't ACTUALLY shifting according to EVERY credible study performed by Meteorologists.
There are actually 5 tornado alleys.
Even more confusingly they blamed the extreme weather "moving" SOUTH AND EAST on climate change somehow, as if to imply higher latitudes getting warmer makes that happen???

Irrelevant. It's a cycle. Nothing to fret over.
Dixie alley has always existed. But what a lot of people here seem to be missing is that the point is it’s becoming more active while traditional tornado alley is becoming less active.
Dixie Alley has always existed and has 2 active seasons. Plus any tornadoes from landfalling tropical systems.
Strawman argument. She never said that Dixie Alley never existed. She said that even more are occuring there, and fewer tornadoes are occurring in the historic tornado alley over the past 30 years.

Does it hurt to be this wrong? You're talking about Dixie alley, a part of the country that has always been known to experience violent tornadoes, some even saying it's worse than tornado alley. And lake mead? It's a man made lake in the middle of the desert. Deserts, by definition, don't experience a lot of rain. Of course the lake is going to dry up
Especially with a rapidly growing population increasing the demand on water from the lake tenfold
Yes people need to stop sayinf Lake Tahoe is being drained by climate change. The population doubled over the decades so demand is higher. Also, this lake was man made. In the 1930’s (when summers were still the hottest on record) this lake did not exist

Both the Easter Sunday 2020 Outbreak and the April 27, 2011 Super Outbreak were ENTIRELY in Dixie. Dixie has always been the true “tornado alley”

Historic tornado Alley has not gone anywhere! Instead, you've discovered Dixie Alley and maybe a few other tornado Alley's too!
Tennessee, the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, Alabama.. pretty much every southern Atlantic and Gulf State has seen this increase. There's also a region known locally as "Carolina Alley" around the I85 and I95 corridors of the Carolinas.
No increase. Long term data overrides short term and proves it.
Dixie alley has always been a thing. It’s based off where convection occurs. Early on it’s in the southeast (Dixie alley) and as the season goes on convection “tends” to move west to southern plains, then north t through central plains to the dakotas. This year El Niño patterns pushed storms a bit east to Illinois. But tornado alley is still tornado alley.
Where does the video presenter say anything to the contrary? 🤔
@@LisaBeergutHolst the title of the video. Tornado alley has and will always be the plains. Dixie alley will always be the southeast. Tornado alley doesn’t move. Dixie alley just becomes more active based on convection.

*Climate change is not a factor for instability. It warms the average temperature overall in the year, but we haven’t seen a major moisture/instability event during the tornado season over the last few years.
Lake Mead is filling back up, so is that going to switch it back again?
Lake Mead isn't the issue, it's simply one of the signs.
Lake Mead's water level is based on the snowpack of the Colorado mountains during the winter. The more snow, the more water when it melts. The water flows into Lake Powell and then gets released into Lake Mead. Last year the lake levels dropped so quickly because Lake Powell closed off and wouldn't let any water out for Lake Mead.
This year the snowpack was great! there was plenty of water and Powell opened the gates again, letting water into Mead. But it will take about a decade's worth of these "good snowpack" to get Mead back to where it was. I'm hopeful that the drought is showing signs of being over, but it is possible it was just a good year this last year and then it's going to go back to drought. Time will tell with that.
And time will tell if the record heat waves that came this year were just a fluke or sticking around for years to come.
"Tornado alley" is the point of contact where the two major air masses join to create the dangerous weather that spawns tornados. At the beginning of the season this point of contact is closer to the gulf coast and slowly works it's way to the rockies throughout the year. Then it starts to work it's way back down to the gulf coast in the later part of the season. That's why tornado outbreaks typically happen in certain parts of the year in certain areas of the year. The concept of "tornado alley" moving is just an increase in people using modern technology to document the tornados that happen in random secluded areas of the country. The tornados were always there. We just see them easier.
They've been using the same technology for the past 30 years...
Weather patterns will always change and always has forever
I'm okay with this. Someone else can deal with those fast spinny clouds for a while.
The southeast is also much more densely populated than much of the old tornado alley area. It's always had a fair amount of tornado activity before this movement. The areas that could afford emergency warning alarm systems have had them for years now.
I don’t think tornado alley is moving. It’s just getting more common in certain places. Here in Oklahoma, our May was somewhat chill, we haven’t had a lot of rotation. However, today we’re in a 4/5 risk of serve weather. It’s like it popped out of nowhere. 90mph wind, tornado risk, and baseball sized hail. I don’t think tornado alley is shifting as a whole.
Definitely not after today
I'm a Native Californian, who had to move to Tulsa, OK, when dad was transferred, working on the Apollo Program.
Yes, Tornado Alley covers more than people think: all the mostly flat plain states, North and South, through Central America. It's mostly been grouped towards TX, OK, MO, hook to NE, because of terrain. Dixie Alley is similar, cuts off by the Appalachians, IIRC?
Regardless, we've had a rather bizarre weather pattern for 10 years, which kept California in drought status: H pressure system, upper Pacific Coast, held there for almost the entirety of 10 years. I'm no Hurricane expert, but I do follow them. Last year, the Atlantic Hurricanes seemed to be coming closer to the Yucatan Peninsula, I think one might've even crossed over to the Pacific? We had El Nino going over here, and then 6 day, powerful storm, Hurricane Hillary went right up the coast, into S CA, then people found it freaky, that it seemed rather polite, in following N up the 10 freeway, turned W onto the 91, gained a bit of strength as it got closer to the ocean, then turned N up the 405, before degrading into showers. It may not look like it to many, but it was pulling moisture from the Pacific Ocean, which began to help break things up over here. We soon began having wave, after wave, of Pineapple Expresses from Hawaii, coming over us! Which went towards the E Plains, after the Rockies. If anyone's flown over the Rockies in a small commuter plane, in the tail bathroom in a thunderstorm? You've joined a much smaller club, than any other 😅 You know what all those handrails are for!
Regardless, all of this, combined with the Atmospheric rivers, got changed! If in a video game, you'd say that Boss level activated! ALL storms go from W to E! That's why Tornadoes tend to move, NE. Twisters do whatever the up & down drafts, with circular motion, allows them to. I gotta tell you, though: after being a survivor of twin EF5 tornadoes, that wreaked devastation from Mannford over to Pawnee, one hot June day? It was like watching a storm backwards as a child. It's also a day that I disobeyed my parents, ran into the grocery store, looking for them, yelled tornadoes! Sky's pillowing, and turned green! Get to shelter!! Did that, 10 min before the sirens went off. Never understood why my parents made a run for it, against that multi cell tornado storm. I can only tell you, most of the damage was N of us, but we weren't safe.
This years STORM CELLS are very much like the one my fam survived. They seem to spawn, after something backed up, such as the H pressure system sat for 10 years, gets moved!
Irregardless of the reasons - it does break free, periodically. Then we have not just Tornado Alley - a Nexus point, where all Tornado Alleys combine, uber storm cells traveling across entire swaths of all alleys!
Louisiana here, can confirm the alley has shifted. When I was young we had hurricanes. They're incredible forces of nature in their own right, but yiu can see em coming 100 miles away. Now we got tornadoes coming through and it's way more terrifying. No basements or storm cellars to hide in down here. Crazy times
I kind of noticed that but we've been in La Nina and the jet stream has been off. We're cooler and not getting the ground zero between the cold dry and the warm moist with a higher temp. It's all been north or east or south of us SE KS/NE OK. And our homes are being built with new timber lumber and just cannot hold up. You need a fraidy hole.

There's two tornado allies. There always has been. Funny people that live in the city have no idea.
There are 4
It’s important to note, tornadoes overall in the US have been declining the past few decades, but context matters, more tornadoes are happening east of the Mississippi River with less occurring west of it. Here in New Jersey we have had record number of Tornadoes the past few years, especially in 2023. We also got a lot of tornadoes from Ida’s remnants back in 2021 (which also flooded my state, was the second most destructive tropical cyclone to hit my state only behind Sandy). But back to Tornadoes, definitely interesting to see how climate change is affecting it.
Dixie ally has gotten pretty active this year. Last year though had 3 EF5s and 1 of them were long lived and a recycled tornado. It turned houses into dust with just the foundation scattered everywhere. And it was unexpected to. So then as soon as the radar showed the rotation, the NWS issued a tornado emergency, the highest level warning for a tornado.
Seeing as we just had like 20 tornadoes in a single night here in Oklahoma a few days ago I call bs
"As climate change warms the..." immediately stopped watching. No need to watch any longer when you push fairy tales like climate change.
I hope you live long enough to hear people laughing at your determined ignorance.
Earth's natural processes don't need to prove themselves to an idiot. Just because you can't comprehend how millions upon cubic millions of CO2 into the atmosphere can change climate doesn't mean it isn't happening.
Climate change isn't a fairy tale but your intellegence sure is one.
@@DTfan43 come up with that on your own did ya?
Agree
Girl, ditch those eyelashes, they just don't do what you think they do.
Bottom line, weather events are changing from "traditional norms" and they are definitely becoming more extreme.
Those who felt they were safe before have now experienced one of these events in recent years. Stay alert my friends!
We keep missing storms in Houston. It was very wet when I was growing up. Last year, lots of people lost 20 year old bushes and trees to drought. I see the rain but it's 100 miles north of us.
Tornado Alley is NOT moving that’s a load of COMPLETE CRAP!
We just had one in colona and than rock island seems like we r getting more in our area each year

Next thing you know, she'll tell us that it's moving further north - and leave out that it's later in the year due to where the jet steam is.
I don't know the science. But I grew up in northeast Arkansas and now live about 20 minutes west of six flags in Missouri. I can confirm that the threat has always seemed to be there for tornadoes in my lifetime. I've personally seen the damage left behind and that alone is enough to make me not take any chances. It's one thing to see a twister way off in the middle of nothing but it's a whole other feeling to come up recording in a residential area that's just been devastated and then to have to hop out and help people. All while hearing them cry and mourn people they just lost. It's eye opening and it isn't a feeling I can ever forget.
No, Dixie Alley is not some new phenomenon at all! Historically there have been well documented violent and deadly tornadoes across the South from before the Civil War. For example, Natchez, MS was hit by a very deadly tornado in 1840. That particular tornado in Natchez back in 1840 s still ranks as one the country's most deadly tornadoes in history. So these tornadoes in the South are not something new at all.
The climate is always changing from summer to fall to winter to spring and back to summer. Some years there’s more tornadoes here and some years there’s more there
Blatant misinformation, those areas have always had the potential for tornadoes and historically have had massive tornadoes
The last 3 years, where I live in Oklahoma didn’t have many bad storms for first time in my existence. I think it’s one reason this past weekend was so traumatic for everyone here. Not only did they come back, they came back in a way we’ve never seen, w the tornado trains .
I don't think that tornado Alley is necessarily shifting east that much because you will still have tornadoes in the traditional Great Plains, and the 1965 Palm Sunday and 1974 Super Outbreak are 2 pieces of evidence that to me suggest that tornado Alley ISN'T moving east, since there are multiple areas of the U.S. that see tornadoes: Dixie Alley in the South and Hoosier Alley in Indiana are 2 examples. I could be wrong but I personally think Tornado Alley isn't shifting that much to the east, thanks to again the 1965 and 1974 outbreaks.
I was thinking that the other day. I'm Oregon, but my boy in Illinois has been sharing his weather and then with the news lately... Yeah. Thanks for the confirmation. ❤️🔥🤘
It's not just dixie alley tbh. The traditionally defined "tornado alley" has actually also shifted a bit east. dixie alley has also shifted a bit south if I recall correctly.
What makes Tornado Alley different from Dixie alley is that Tornadoes look for Flat land to build up steam and the tornadoes can build into monsters while tornadoes in the Dixie alley are more short lived from hitting hills and getting Rain rapped.
You said climate change... 🙄
"Climate change" doesn't "warm" anything...
Climate change is the climate changing. That can mean warming, cooling, drying, etc. it’s changed many times just our current epoch, it has led to warmer waters, colder waters, more rainfall, less rainfall, etc.
Of course it can cause things to warm up.
@@MP-et1eu Like I said, it doesn't "warm" anything. It is the result of myriad variables, not an actor. The radiant energy of the sun "warms" the earth.
@@sirj3487 the myriad of variables are the actor.
@@MP-et1eu Precisely!
@@sirj3487 the myriad of variables are what climate change is, If the myriad of variables are the actor, then climate change *can* warm something’s
Still praying for a less active year
A few clarifications here.
Tornado alley does not "move". The Central-East US is a prime area for convection which involves warm gulf air meeting cold arctic air. Where this convection happens changes every single year depending on the season. In the winter that convection happens further south, in the Summer it happens further north. In the spring and fall it happens in the midwest.
This is why you see tornados as far south as florida and as far north as canada.
Climate change isn't responsible for any changing in tornado alley nor is it "moving east".
That isn't to say climate change isn't happening, it is, but it isn't to blame. As many have pointed out, the region you are discussing is called "Dixie Alley". This is the nickname given to Mississippi, Tennessee, and Alabama. There are just as many tornados here as there are in the Midwest, just at different times of the year, and often due to a lack of infrastructure they often are far more fatal, with Alabama and Mississippi having the highest Tornado Deaths per year and per decade.
tldr tornado alley isnt moving, it never was and likely never will unless earth gets conditions similar to Venus (which won't happen in any of our lifetimes, or the lifetime of humanity for that matter). Climate change isn't responsible for any correlation in events with where tornados occur.
Legit. I ain’t moving to Laplada, MD. They crazy with Tornadoes!
Stop wth the climate change BS.
Facts
I always find it interesting how black people are all we dont trust nobody especially the government everything is racist everything is out to bring us down but then they are first in line to get jabbed up and accept the climate change lie. Always first in line to follow the oppressors. It's really no surprise what happened to them in the past happened they probably told them a deadly disease is going around and a flood is coming get on the boat with us and come to the new world to be safe.
My climate changes four times a year. It’s called Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall!
Keep in mind how big and heavy cars were in 1970, how much steel they had in them!
2024 is looking like a more classic with peak tornado season expected in May (which hasn't been the case in the past few years). Tornado alley is also expected to be more active while Dixie Alley may be less active.
When the comments section is more informed than the content creator trying to inform them.
And let's be more specific here: VIOLENT tornadoes have been moving in Dixie Ally for the past 30+ years.
Um, 6 of the 10 deadliest tornadoes of all time were in Dixie Alley. Only one recently, Joplin. The rest between 1840 and 1936. You should probably delete this embarrassing comment.
I had a hunch it was shifting. I’m curious to see how this years hurricane tracks play out. Great info!
Your hunch is oblivious to Dixie Alley and so is this ignorant video. Nice job.
Tornadoes are why if I ever build a house, it’s going to be a tornado-resistant monolithic dome home.
That's called Dixie Alley.
Mason Dixon line. That's moving. Tornado ally is Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma. Then picks up through Indiana and Illinois Ohio. ALSO Tennessee and Kentucky Alabama Mississippi.The states listed here are thick as leaves in the fall. We get tornadoes in December.
Could the use of cloud seeding, used by USA and Saudia Arabia and UAE, be effecting the current weather patterns?
You don’t have to talk about climate change to be a meteorologist.
I remembered this one tornado hit a town just south where I’m living at in late August 1998. It was close towards my mother’s birthday. My sister was staying at my parents home when it happened. It was on a Sunday evening just before 7pm. All of the lights were out. I went to bed. I woke up just a little bit after 9pm my neighbor was yelling at another neighbor. I went back to sleep till 3am. I have to start to work at 5am. I didn’t bother to go to work since the power was out till 10:30am. I did ride my bike towards my parents house. I got so bored at home. I never did go towards my grandmother’s apartment near me.
To everyone who is saying that it's "Dixie Alley" and has always been there, the word "Dixie" is now considered a derogatory term for certain people and the new proper term will be now and forever known as "Martin Luther King, Jr. Alley" and should be celebrated as such with the month of May designated for the reflection and teaching of the reason why it was wrong to call it "Dixie Alley" in a time when the words you use may bring back memories of a time long ago that instills fear and hatred amongst the people who cannot let go of the past and live a normal life like the majority of the country. Thank you and please remember, "Martin Luther King, Jr. Alley" and stop using the derogatory term "Dixie."
Lol she said, "climate change".
Yeah she did. It’s real whether you want to believe it or not.
@@lucaweatherdude_6542 Totally controlled by the sun too, but I'm sure you already know that.
@@lucaweatherdude_6542. Ahahahahaha 😊
LOL
That may be true. The problem is that much of the data is relatively recent, so it is biased towards our current framework of knowledge.
its' likely more accurate due to the relatively recent data & trends. Unless you think we can go backwards with our climate it's likely gonna be the new norm.
You can know so much about a person with a few words

Science-y as opposed to assume-y, lol.
@@kevinmanan1304
The data is lkely accurate, but short term in the scheme of things. This can increase possibility of biased interpretation.
The data has to be fairly recent because it is about a recent change.
Tornado Alley didn’t move. Dixie Alley has always had really bad nighttime tornadoes.
If Tornado alley has moved south and east, that means the cold front is moving further south. It seems this is evidence of cooling if the fronts are colliding further south.
She teaches me more than my teacher 😂
That is the old tornado alley it moved almost 30 decades ago.
30 decades ago?
You mean 30 years ago. I don’t we have good enough observation data 300 years ago to even tell whether tornado concentration has moved.
I remember more storm activity in MO in the 90's but since 2015 or so it's been fairly mellow. Winter seems to linger longer but summer does too.
Me looking at the map and realizing I live in tornado ally and I got hit by a tornado last night
This is Dixie Alley woman. It’s been here longer than your parents have been alive. Central AL right here…. I will confirm we have as many tornadoes as tornado alley. Forget about the April, 15-26, 2011…. What about 74 super outbreak??? Yeah, this isn’t new. We had EF-4s and 5s before the 40s…. Heck we got a town (I forgot the name, as ima have to edit this when I do remember it) that is supposedly haunted after being wiped clean in the 20s.
