Human: I've heard that my area is prone to tornados. Is this something I should be concerned about? Assistant: 
Yes, your area is prone to tornadoes. Tornadoes are a type of severe weather event that can occur in the United States and other parts of the world. They are usually associated with thunderstorms, but they can also form from other types of storms such as hurricanes. Tornadoes are typically accompanied by very strong winds, heavy rain, and sometimes hail.
