Recent record-breaking tornado activity, with NOAA's Storm Prediction Center reporting over 1,900 preliminary counts in 2024—second only to 2011—and above-average outbreaks in early 2025, anchors trader sentiment toward higher bins, positioning 1250+ as the leading outcome at 39.5% implied probability. This upward shift reflects persistent atmospheric drivers like enhanced wind shear during La Niña phases and warmer Gulf of Mexico waters boosting convective available potential energy (CAPE), sustaining severe weather patterns beyond the historical annual mean of about 1,250. While interannual variability remains high and final tallies often revise downward, multi-year trends amid climate warming favor elevated totals, diminishing odds for sub-950 counts at 16%. Traders eye spring 2026 outlooks from NOAA for further calibration.

Only tornadoes appearing in the final NCEI dataset for all months of 2026 will count.
As of market creation, the December report is not yet scheduled, however the release schedule can be found here: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/dyk/monthly-releases. The market will resolve based on the first relevant tornado count published on the NCEI tornado time-series page after this scheduled release time.
If the value published after this scheduled release time is labeled preliminary, it will still determine resolution, and the market will resolve independently of any subsequent revisions, corrections, or retroactive adjustments.
The market will not resolve based on any preliminary values published before the scheduled release time.
If no data is published by the scheduled release time, or if the NCEI website is temporarily unavailable, this market will remain open until that data is made available. If the relevant data is not made available by the date of the next scheduled publication ET, this market will resolve based on available data for the most recent prior month. If the NCEI website becomes permanently unavailable, this market will resolve using another credible source.
