We are just so much better now at finding and documenting every single tornado, and it isn't just due to better radar. Population growth and expansion is key, as is the growth of video technology. There are simply more people in more places and nearly all of them have some means of documenting any tornado that may drop from a storm

Right, and look at the increase in confirmed short lived, weak tornadoes. The number of blue dots increases dramatically. We are surveying and confirming way more weak tornadoes than we used to. Those tornadoes always occurred. People just never knew about them.

I found that hurricane-related tornadoes gave us a bump, too. They weren't included prior to 1959, and weren't always even after that.
