Thats really awesome!!! National Geographic made one of those maps back in 2004 when they did their tornado article with Tim Samaras, it was from 1950 to the present time of 2004

It would be interesting to see a global map like that. "Tornado Alley" would still probably be the densest area for the world.

I surprised there isn't a dense cluster over Washington DC.......

**** Wait For It ****

Isn't that area known for lots of hot air and extremely low air pressure ????

Besides the the west it's interesting to see the non-activity in Appalachia, the extreme north east, and north Florida. Look at Jacksonville, almost nothing.
Good find Garth.
