Why do most powerful, violent tornadoes seem to exclusively be a US phenomenon?

488 viewsOtherPlanetary Science

Like, I’ve never heard of a powerful tornado in, say, the UK, Mexico, Japan, or Australia. Most of the textbook tornadoes seem to happen in areas like Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. By why is this the case? Why do more countries around the world not experience these kinds of storms?

It’s because other countries have roundabouts and that helps reverse the tornados before they occur. Neat!
