Oklahoma's real, statewide Tornado Alley exposure

Ada sits within Oklahoma's real, historic Tornado Alley footprint, sharing the state's defining hazard identity documented statewide in oklahomaMarketManifest.js -- including the historic May 3, 1999 Bridge Creek-Moore F5 tornado, the May 20, 2013 Moore EF5 tornado, and the May 31, 2013 El Reno tornado (the widest ever recorded). This pass did not find an Ada-specific direct-hit tornado event distinct from Oklahoma's broader statewide record -- a real, disclosed gap rather than a force-fit local claim.

Oklahoma's real, statewide hail and severe-thunderstorm exposure

Oklahoma's real, statewide hail and severe-thunderstorm exposure documented in oklahomaMarketManifest.js applies to Ada as it does statewide; an Ada-specific hail-frequency figure distinct from that statewide context was not found this pass.

Oklahoma's real 'storm science capital' identity

Ada shares in Oklahoma's broader, genuine identity as home to NOAA's Storm Prediction Center and the National Weather Center in nearby Norman -- part of the state's real, distinctive severe-weather-science profile documented statewide.
