Americans are accustomed to tornados & twisters wreaking havoc & destroying homes in the midwestern states like Oklahoma, Kansas, et.al. We hear about it in the news, we see video captures, and we see the devasted victims right here in our own country!
But, I rarely hear about tornados or twisters destroying homes & properties in Europe, Asia, or Africa. Aside from the occasional offshore "waterspout" tornados or hurricanes, I don't recall hearing about a category 1, 2, or 3 tornado elsewhere in the world.
Surely, the U.S. isn't the only area in the world where tornados exist!
Does anyone know if tornados FREQUENT elsewhere in the world (i.e.other countries)? Or is the U.S. climate and geological features just more suitable for tornados?
