It would seem that this correlates with the severe drought conditions recently. Does also correlate in previous years?

It’s been the coldest spring in my memory.

Hot weather and cold fronts make for tornadoes.

Wait until it gets hot.

Tornado season more active = proof of global warming
Tornado season less active = proof of global warming

My view about that is a little “out there”, maybe later... :’)

Without really doing research, drought doesn’t seem to have a great effect on tornadoes.

1988-1990, for example, were drought years in much of the Midwest. There was not not a particularly low number of tornadoes.

Low tornado numbers in 2000 and 2001. Closest noticeable droughts were 1999 and 2002.
