List of Ohio tornadoes

Climatology

edit

Ohio's climate is relatively mild, and is only ideal for the formation of tornadoes in certain parts of the year, especially February and March. Warm air from the Southern United States can reach up into the Ohio Valley, resulting in tornadic storms. Ohio's proximity to Lake Erie also results in cold air moving toward the Ohio Valley, creating the "hot-cold" effect seen in the traditional Tornado Alley.[2] Ohio has had large tornado outbreaks, the most notable being the 1974 Super Outbreak.[1][2]
