Where is Tornado Alley?

Locher, Wes (author.). Putra, Dede (Illustrator), (illustrator.).

Summary: "Robert Miller and Ernest Fawbush coined the term 'Tornado Alley' after studying the pattern of tornadoes that occurred around Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma. They determined that the highest number of tornadoes in the United States took place across states such as Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. In this exciting new book, readers will learn about the history of Tornado Alley, other weather phenomena in the area, and what you can do when there is a tornado headed your way. The book also reveals how tornadoes are formed, how storm chasers do their work, and how they help researchers predict new tornado patterns"--
