Not really, the tornadoes are mostly east of the city or farther out onto the eastern plains of Colorado where it's a lot flatter. That's not to say that they haven't gotten close to the city before, it's just rare that they do. Although, you don't have to go that far east of the metro area to start encountering the dangers of tornadoes. It just keeps magnifying the farther east you go.
