I've been told for years that Jackson has more verified tornadoes than any other city in America. Can't verify because I don't care enough to look out up but that's what the locals up there have told me.
Motivation has a lot to do with that. The good folks at the NWS Jackson office like nothing more than finding every single possible tornado that ever breaks a twig in a tree anywhere in their area.
More and more offices are getting that way these days, but Jackson has a big jump on them. I'm not saying that is a bad thing, it has just always been Jackson's MO. As tBoat would say if he were here, "They don't call them Action Jackson for no reason."

I had 2 tornadoes go through my yard a few years apart in Alabama so it's definitely accurate.

You know I never really knew until I looked it up recently that the central US is the only place in the world that gets long track violent tornadoes.
Other areas of the world get the occasional tornado but nothing like we see here.

I’m in that red area and the weather these days is definitely nastier than I used to see 10-20 years ago. It seems that the lines of storms we get here bow more often and bring heavy winds.

KJAN might be just a bit jumpy due to a common memory of the 1966 Candlestick Park Tornado
A Hemmingway granddaughter wrote a book about it: South Jackson perspective

All due to the position of the Rockies and the warm gulf moisture. It’s a perfect setup you can’t find anywhere else on the globe

About 7 days ago I passed through a rural area of the ozark and saw two very recent tornado tracks, leaves were still a bit green. 24 inch diameter trees were pulled up by there roots and relocated. There is a lot of violence with a tornado

I've saw tornadoes take grass and shoot it through tree trunks. And it gets lodged into it like bullets.

Terlingua, Big Bend area of Texas.
