Answer 1

Because of the geography, most US storms start brewing in Texas, and this the term "Tornado Alley was born.
----------------
Most tornadoes in the United States form in an area called "Tornado Alley". This area includes parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. Storm chasers travel to this area because of the high concentration of tornadoes. These tornadoes are formed by thunderstorms. Some of the tornadoes in the southern states such as Florida, South Carolina, and Georgia are caused by hurricanes.

Well, the weather service stats say that San Antonio is below the state average for tornado activity but 19% above the national average. The last one that was properly called a tornado that touched down was in 1953, according to the data on City-Data.com.

But I don't live there, so I only have the stats to quote.
