Btw Alabama has more tornadoes per year on average than Missouri so don't try and compare a tornado in Alabama to a fricking hurricane in the Midwest
Dixie Alley is a nasty bitch.
There aren't as many as Tornado Alley but the tornadoes are usually more powerful and track longer.

Actually the Jet Stream has dipped further south over the last 10-15 years, creating a natural wind funnel from Hattiesburg to Huntsville, right along I-59. Three of the top four sites for tornadoes in recent years have been in Alabama.

They are also more dangerous because more than 50% of them occur at night and are usually rain-wrapped, making them almost impossible to see.
Tornado Alley also has only one tornado season while Dixie Alley has three.
