WICHITA, Kan. (AP) Oklahoma and Kansas comprise much of Tornado Alley, but they havent recorded a single tornado this year.
The two states havent experienced such a calm spring season in decades.
Jack Boston is a senior meteorologist for AccuWeathers Wichita office. He says the trend is pretty incredible.
A stubborn weather pattern bringing cool, dry air from Canada to the southern Great Plains has halted the arrival of warm spring temperatures and kept moisture from the Gulf of Mexico from pushing into the nations central region.
Weather officials say any moisture that made it to Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas has since evaporated as the states battle droughts.
