A believer in the law of averages might be wise to prepare for a lot of tornadoes this way.
By TOM ZIND Staff Reporter
Phil Shideler, chief meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Topeka, said recently that Kansas had been luckier than usual the past few springs.

Shider was not willing to make any predictions on the basis of averages. However, he did offer some facts that might lead to a prediction for severe spring weather.
Law of averages predicts rash of tornadoes
Shider said the outlook for April called for above normal precipitation and below normal precipitation.
"The number of tornadoes has been down the past few years and it has to average out sometime," he said. "Our time is going to run out."
Shidler said that during the past 30 years, Kansas averaged 45 tornadoes a year. Last year, Shidler said, Kansas had 28 reported tornadoes.
"THE APRIL outlook would support a good number of tornadoes," he said.
Above normal temperatures for May and June also could mean an increase in tornadoes or storms.
"We had a cold winter, so we would expect to see a shift in patterns for May and June," he said. "If that should happen, that could support a larger outbreak than normal."
Larry Cosgrove, director of the KU Weather Service in Lindley Hall, said Kansas could experience about 30 percent more severe weather this spring than last spring. Severe weather, Cosgrove said, referred to thunderstorms and tornadoes.
"We observed a slight increase in the number of frontal systems that came to mind."
"While it will be worse than last year, it be a real burglar," he said.
Cosgrove said this could account for an increase in severe weather.
Citing research done by a graduate student in 1972, Cosgrey predicted that there might be an abundance of bad weather in the 1800s.
Congrove stopped short of warning Kansas residents to stock their storm shelters.
"I THINK THE really active years are yet to come," he said. "It's going to jig bed in the

However, he said that if it appeared that water could be outrun, it would be wise to water it.
Shielder said that if a tornado appeared to be standing still, it was probably moving through the ground.

"If you've got the road in front of you, you can try to run it out," he said.
Shaderd said people often had more time than they thought to take cover in severe weather.

His exhibit, "Robert Irwin: An installation," consists of two large pieces of velvet stretched from ceiling to floor, resembling a passaeway.

The four-inch-square drawings are assembled consecutively on the walls
