☆ Tornado alley is widening, putting millions more people and properties at risk

Much of that is because the season is starting earlier, and tornado alley is expanding due to a warmer climate. Tornadoes need four ingredients to form, explained Ashley: moisture, instability (which provides the energy necessary for the storms), wind shear and lift. When a powerful F-4 tornado plowed through Rolling Fork, Mississippi, in March, residents were largely unprepared. The only one that I can remember is 1971, and the tornado bypassed Rolling Fork. That's precisely why the widening of tornado alley is fast becoming a new focus for insurers.

Search and rescue teams were also out in Rolling Fork, a town of 1,700 people that saw the brunt of the tornado, CNN reported. "My city is gone, but we are resilient," Rolling Fork Mayor Eldridge Walker said on CNN. According to Walker, 12 of the people who died were in Rolling Fork, adding several people were trapped in their homes. Terrell compared the destruction to a tornado in Joplin, Missouri, that killed 161 people in 2011. The reports stretched from the western edge of Mississippi north through the center of the state and into Alabama.
