Correct answer: This is where low-level warm, moist air meets with higher, cool, dry air.

The conditions in tornado alley are more favorable. In the summer, the plains of middle US get increasingly hot which in turn, cause updrafts as well as thunderstorms. When hot air becomes unstable and rises it meets cooler air above the thunderclouds, which causes tornadoes.
