Oklahoma hits 100 tornadoes this year, doubling typical numbers by May
"Since modern tornado records have started in 1950, this is only the 8th year that Oklahoma has seen 100 or more tornadoes, and this is only the 3rd year where we've seen 100 tornadoes by the end of May," Speheger said. There were two tornadoes in March, 55 in April and 43 in May.
