Tornadoes can be very destructive, with wind speeds reaching up to 300 miles per hour. They can destroy houses, uproot trees, and even lift cars into the air. The United States has more tornadoes than any other country in the world, especially in an area known as “Tornado Alley”.Tornado Alley includes parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. Tornadoes usually form during spring and summer. They often come with little warning, making them very dangerous. To stay safe during a tornado, people should go to a basement or an interior（内部的） room without windows. Meteorologists use radar（雷达） and other tools to try to predict tornadoes and issue warnings.
