When a cool dry high pressure system moves into tornado alley which type of air mass does it run into where a tornado could be the result?

1 answer

When a cool dry high pressure system moves into tornado alley, it may run into a warm, moist air mass. This type of air mass provides the necessary ingredients for severe thunderstorms and tornadoes to form. The collision of the cool dry air mass with the warm moist air mass can create unstable atmospheric conditions that are conducive for severe weather events, such as tornadoes.
