Tornado Warnings Increase in Major U.S. Cities as Risk Zones Expand
Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports from New York City on the rising frequency of tornado warnings in major U.S. cities like Dallas and Oklahoma City. Once uncommon in urban areas, tornado threats are now becoming a regular concern due to shifting storm patterns linked to climate change. McIntyre highlights the increased risk to both lives and high-value properties due to greater population density and property concentration in cities. He warns that tornado zones are expanding north and east, placing more metropolitan areas in the path of severe weather.
