Spring Tornado Lull - Is The Season Over?

After a quick start to tornado season, we have hit a relative lull.  There were no tornadoes confirmed in April and 4 at the beginning of May.  This begs the question:  will there be any more tornadoes this year?

I reviewed our tornado records for all years from 1950-2011, and it turns out that 62/62 years (that would be 100%) have produced tornadoes after the month of May.  Some of those years produced several tornado days after May.  While it has been rather quiet lately, if history is any guide, there is more to come.
