The relationship of storm tracks to the occurrence of tornadoes in Indiana

In April and May of 1976 an anomalous situation occurred in that no tornadoes were reported for Indiana. This study attempts to determine possible relationships that may have caused the anomalous situation. To better understand the factors surrounding this situation, this study deals with a physical...
