Across the Great Plains of the United States Midwest, the peak tornado season of June and July is quickly approaching. Tornadoes have already wreaked widespread devastation in the United States, including Oklahoma and Kansas, Iowa, and Michigan.
Tornadoes, according to the National Severe Storms Laboratory at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), can occur at any time of year. Tornado season is projected to shift in both location and duration as a result of climate change, adding to the complexity of planning for the potentially destructive phenomenon.
