Over the past four decades, research from Northern Illinois University suggests the traditional tornado alley in the Great Plains is beginning to shift east, with more tornadoes popping up in the southeast and Midwest, and fewer in the central and southern Plains.

The tornado alley typically targets Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and South Dakota, but the research suggests sharp increases in tornado activity near Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Alabama.
