HUNTSVILLE, Alabama - Huntsville is No. 1 in the nation but it's sort of a dubious honor.
The Huntsville/Madison County area has been rated No. 1 in a weather.com ranking of the top tornado cities in the country.
Birmingham is listed as No. 3 on the list and Tuscaloosa No. 4.
The list was compiled by Dr. Greg Forbes, a tornado expert for The Weather Channel.
The weather.com report also indicates a shift in the nation's most tornado-prone areas. While the plains states of Kansas and Oklahoma are most typically considered tornado alley, the top four cities are all in the Deep South - with Jackson, Miss., sliding in at No. 2 among the four Alabama cities.
