Can Tornadoes Strike In River Valleys?
Does anyone in the esteemed and vastly knowledgeable CP community know if tornadoes can strike in river valleys? I live in Drumheller, and the topic comes up every year around tornadoe season. The general consensus is no, but nobody has any valid reasons other than they've never heard of it happening. I tried Google, and turned up cases in the mid-eastern US where they've struck in river valleys, but river valleys in the mid-eastern US tend to be pretty shallow compared to the Red Deer river valley. Locals around Drum figure tornaodes will just skip over the valley. Does anyone have any knowledge on this? David Spence ... are you out there?
