Trader consensus leans toward above-average tornado activity in 2026, with 1250+ (32%) and 1200–1249 (27%) leading as recent record-breaking seasons—2024's preliminary NOAA count exceeding 1,900 confirmed tornadoes—signal a potential upward trend driven by enhanced atmospheric instability from rising convective available potential energy (CAPE) amid climate warming. Differentiating factors include expected La Niña persistence into early 2026, which historically boosts wind shear and supercell formation in Tornado Alley per NOAA Climate Prediction Center analyses, versus climatological averages of ~1,200–1,250 annual events (1991–2020 baseline). Lower bins like <950 (22.5%) reflect uncertainty in detection biases and possible neutral ENSO transitions, with spring Storm Prediction Center outlooks as key near-term catalysts.

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.
