List of United States tornadoes from January to March 2026
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This page documents all tornadoes confirmed by various weather forecast offices of the National Weather Service in the United States in January to March, 2026. Tornado counts are considered preliminary until final publication in the database of the National Centers for Environmental Information.[1] Based on the 1991–2020 average, about 35 tornadoes are typically recorded across the United States during both January and February, with the average increasing to about 80 in March.[2] These tornadoes are commonly focused across the Southern United States due to their proximity to the unstable air mass and warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, as well as California in association with winter storms in those three months.[3] With the arrival of spring, tornadic activity begins to spread northward, especially late in the month.[4]

Despite a small outbreak from January 8–10, and another small tornado event on January 25, the month finished below average with just 21 confirmed tornadoes as arctic air largely dominated the month and few winter storms affected California during the month. February likewise saw arctic air dominate through the first half of the month with very little tornadic activity until halfway through the month, when an outbreak of weak QLCS tornadoes occurred in states along the Gulf Coast on February 14–15. This was followed less than a week later by small outbreak in southern Illinois and southern Indiana on the 19th as unseasonably moist gulf moisture surged north as a pronounced low-pressure system moved across the area. Activity was limited thereafter for the rest of the month as arctic air once again took hold over the eastern part of the US. February finished with an above average total of 49 tornadoes confirmed during the month. Despite no violent tornadoes occurring in March, the month was still well above average, mainly due to three major outbreaks that occurred in the middle of the month. March also continued the recent trend of very active March's in recent years, ranking as the third most active of all time behind 2022 and 2025, finishing with 204 confirmed tornadoes during the month.
