10 years ago on May 31 a Tornado swept threw my city taking my house with it.

I was just wondering if it was true that every 10 years a tornado follows its old paths?

  1. Tornadoes are not creatures of habit nor do they hold grudges.

    The odds do not change whether you've had a tornado or not.

    When a thunderstorm passes your area does it follow the same

    path or is it random?  I understand that a tornado can leave

    emotional scars but don't worry, sweetie, you're no more likely

    to suffer that again whether you leave or stay put.  The odds

    that you'll get hit are the same as they were the first time.


  2. There are always statistics about tornadoes like for example a major tornado will occur every 10 years.  Tornadoes tend to take the same path no matter where you your location is at.  If you were to take a look at tornado maps you can see that more tornado as come close or hit the same area more than once.  It can happen and to say that it was 10 years later is just an coincidence.

  3. No,  that would be a myth, an urban legend.

  4. You never know what can happen...

    It is just a coincidence because than the city would be totally DESTROYED!!! And than why would people wanta live in an area where there are tornadoes every 10yrs? Trust me i doubt it...

  5. Tornadoes are not known to take the same exact path as previous tornadoes. Having two tornadoes with the same paths is very rare and purely coincidental. There is no scientific reason that tornadoes would follow the paths of tornadoes before them. The path of a tornado depends solely on the formation of the parent thunderstorm. Thunderstorm development location is nearly impossible to predict. Meteorologists are only able to predict a general area where thunderstorm and/or tornado development is possible. Each storm is unique and makes its' own path. It can be said that the storm does not care where any previous storm went.

  6. no its not look at xena ohio it has not been hit again i dont think

  7. It's seen that a tornado have and had passed in the same way in the past few days and years.

    Don't worry this time, It was just a coincidence. it won't come this time again.

    And by the way I will like to say something:

    Once only may sometime happen twice but it is said that it won't happen 3 times in the same place with the same thing.

    So relax with your mom, dad and your family.

    And good luck to you and family.
