Answer 1

Nashville does get tornadoes. Just not as many as places like Oklahoma City, I know of at least three weather events in the past year that a tornadic storm moved through Nashville.

Answer 3

The most tornadoes occur in the central US, specifically Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, and Nebraska. This is the area often referred to as "Tornado Alley". The tornadoes in these states are not only more frequent than in other states, they also tend to be stronger.

It's not uncommon for severe thunderstorms to sweep through Tennessee, with the occasional one spawning a tornado or two. While not as frequent as in the states to the west, Tennessee certainly sees quite a few. The frequency varies, and there's no way to predict where a tornado will happen in the future, however this graph may help you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Torna...

There was a tornado that hit downtown Nashville a few years back. You can read about that outbreak here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nashville_T...

Answer 4

No, Its Near The Mountains. BUT Its Possible For Them To Form, And It Is In The Outer Bands Of Tornado Alley. And As For Most, That Would Be Kansas. Its Very Flat.
