Why are IL, KA, OK, MO, and IN the states that are more prone to having tornadoes then other states?

Actually, data from the last 49 years has shown that the States more susceptible to tornadoes are Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. Tornadoes can and have occurred in every state of the 48 contiguous states. Over the past few years, their occurrence has increased across Illinois, and Indiana as more people are available to observe the tornado’s occurrence, and cold/warm front boundaries become stalled across these areas. Mostly, we are able to direct spotters towards areas where the Doppler Radar is detecting mesocyclone circulations to observe development of tornadoes.
