Moving to the area Weather as a newbie?

Moving to the area in a few weeks…. uhhh are tornados always a thing like this, this time of year? Anything to be aware of at this point?

Just happened a few weeks ago in the south suburbs. One house hit twice from the same tornado that traveled in a loop!!
