Record Breaking Tornadoes for New York State

Map of New York - 29 Tornadoes from February to September 2024 

You know 29 tornadoes in NYS is something else. That shows tornadoes can happen anywhere and no tornado should be taken lightly or believing tornadoes don't happen in mountains or by lakes or in colder regions. It can happen any time of the year and any location. Proof is in this map. I love weather so much because I have found a special interests all because my first time watching Tornadoes on TV at age 5 I have always obsessed by weather. The reason I love Tornadoes is I don't know. I have autism spectrum disorder and thunderstorms hurt my ears and my eyes. They cause me emotional discomfort and panic. I hit my head in thunderstorms from this. I been told by friends who are storm chasers that Tornadoes are louder than thunder. I would never be able to cope with a tornado. The reason I love Tornadoes is because I love how they spin, form, and move. Something about seeing a finger fall out of the sky spinning around makes me obsessed. For this reason I want to learn about weather and facts that I love going around telling people. It's part of my autism diagnosis. 

So it's my obsession and I want to share the information that could save your life. 29 Tornadoes in a area that don't see this many Tornadoes has me wondering. How many people believe that a tornado can't happen in cold areas? How many people believe a mountain can keep you safe from a tornado. How many people believe Tornadoes don't hit large Cities. You know how wrong you are? If you believe this you might have a mental disorder with your delusion. But I don't blame you for believing this. Especially when just 5 to 10 years ago we had false tornado warnings. Just over 10 years ago if a thunderstorm was producing a tornado, the entire county was under the warning. Technology wasn't able to deliver specific part of a county to warn only effected towns. Not to mention that radar and warning technologies wasn't able to know localized or small scale severe weather. Let alone Technology didn't allow meteorologist a better understanding of how and why Tornadoes form and what thunderstorms and environment makes a tornado when similar environments don't produce Tornadoes. With faster computers with better graphics meteorologist was able to put together forecast similartors and modules that helped discover new information that wasn't known before about Tornadoes and the winds inside a tornado. Plus how pressure changes and very small scale changes in temperature and winds and pressure environments formed Tornadoes. This also helped the better understanding of how thunderstorms move and suddenly change direction. The May 31, 2014 El Reno tornado that killed 4 storm chasers because the sudden change in direction, size, and speed of the deadly EF5 tornado wasn't understood why they are so unpredictable. Now we understand pressure changes near and in the thunderstorm causes the storm to turn right. In the last 2 years meteorologist have been able to discover information on what actual is needed to form a tornado and why not all super cells produce Tornadoes. 

This can help make you more comfortable with changing your day when an unexpected tornado warning is issued. Especially when we have a better understanding of storms and how we can detect and forecast the impacts of severe weather. Especially when we all know mountain can enhance wind sheer and lift two main ingredients for Tornadoes. And now recently record Breaking amount of Tornadoes in NYS. 

Not to mention how much better Hurricane warnings have made it more possible to detect rapid intensifying storms and better Strom impact and flooding that the public has better understanding and trust in the hard work the NWS put in making better forecast and warnings to support NOAA mission statement to protect life and property.
