ANALYSIS: Why the southern US is prone to December tornadoes — and why they're more dangerous at night

As of December 12,EF-3 and five EF-2 tornadoes have been confirmed. EF-2 and EF-3 tornadoes are considered strong, with wind speeds of 113–157 mph and 158–206 mph respectively.

Strong straight-line winds also occur with severe storms and can create as much damage as a tornado. After severe storms and reports of tornadoes, the National Weather Service conducts in-person storm damage surveys to determine whether a tornado or straight-line winds created the reported damage and the degree of damage. Investigators will look to see if debris is scattered in one direction, which would indicate straight-line winds, or in many different directions — the hallmark of a tornado.

I’m going to guess atmosphere conditions.
