Not at all! It's pretty rare.

Twisters are fairly rare in Delaware - and even more rare this far north in the state.
Granted, the state is only 100 miles from north to south, but the lower half is where they more often turn up, and even those are rare.

Howdy from tornado alley! Do you get many twisters up there?It's funny - I spent ten years in Texas and Oklahoma, but I've been around far more tornadoes up here in SE Pennsylvania. Just this summer, a funnel cloud came within a mile of my house south of Lancaster, a tornado came within five miles, and an F-3 hit about twenty-five miles to the north.
However, we tend to get more F-1 dinkers up here - we might get an F-3 about every 4-5 years.
