List of Brazil tornadoes

Brazil is one of the countries with the highest incidence of tornadoes outside the regions traditionally known for such phenomena. According to a survey by the State University of Ponta Grossa (UEPG), between 1975 and 2018, a total of 581 tornadoes were recorded in the country, 411 of which occurred in the Southern Region, accounting for approximately 70% of all cases. In 2018, the PREVOTS platform was established to document severe weather events across Brazil. Upon completing five years of operation, a report indicated that between June 2018 and June 2023, 321 damage incidents caused by tornadoes were recorded, including waterspouts. ^[1] Most tornadoes in Brazil are associated with high-precipitation supercells, resulting in rain-wrapped tornadoes that are difficult to see. The annual average number of tornadoes in Brazil remains uncertain due to the country’s less robust meteorological infrastructure compared to nations like the United States or Canada, and because of the low population density in the most tornado-prone areas. These factors contribute to underreporting, with many tornadoes being identified only months or even years after they occur. Recent estimates suggest a plausible average of 50 to 60 tornadoes per year, although this figure lacks official confirmation due to the aforementioned limitations.

Climatology

Twenty-five of Brazil's 26 states have recorded at least one tornado since 1970, the only one without confirmation being the state of Acre. Even the Federal District has experienced tornado episodes, but most of them were landspouts. This is due to the tropical, semi-humid climate present throughout the country, but the southern states, the interior of São Paulo state in the Southeast, and southern Mato Grosso do Sul in the Center-West, are the most recorded, accounting for 95% of the country's tornadoes. This is because they are part of the "Pasillo de los tornados", a region of South America prone to tornadoes due to the meeting of warm, humid air masses from the Amazon rainforest, Gran Chaco, and the Atlantic Ocean, which meet cold, dry air masses from Patagonia and Antarctica, in addition to the hot, dry winds from the Andes mountain range. These areas are also influenced by severe convective storms from the Río de la Plata basin. ^[2] A Harvard study revealed that the frequency of tornadoes in this alley is not even higher due to the ruggedness of the Amazon rainforest, which reduces vorticity near the ground. Although this region experiences a high number of severe storms throughout the year, this limitation significantly reduces the chances of tornado formation. Possibly, without this obstacle, the region could have a frequency equal to or even greater than that of North America. ^[3]

Tornadoes in this alley are comparable to Dixie Alley, with HP supercell tornadoes being more common, and the terrain is more undulating, with one exception in the Pampas. Furthermore, nocturnal tornadoes or outbreaks are more common, as was the case with the outbreak on the night of September 7, 2009, in the province of Misiones, Argentina, and southern Brazil. Tornadoes generally range from F0 to F2, but some violent and deadly tornadoes have occurred, such as an F5 in San Justo, Argentina, in 1973; an F4+ (possibly a low-end F5) in Encarnación, Paraguay, in 1926, with over 300 deaths; an F4 in Fray Marcos, department of Florida, Uruguay, in 1970; and several examples in Brazil.

Brazilian wind scale - EBRAV

Brazil has its own scale for wind-related events, called the Brazilian Wind Scale (EBRAV). It was created according to Brazilian construction standards and has eight levels, ranging from level 0, with winds of 50 km/h, to level 7, with winds exceeding 261 km/h. The minimum level used for tornadoes is level 2, with winds of 81 km/h or more, compatible with an F0. However, the EBRAV scale is rarely used, resulting in the use of the Fujita Scale. Even so, Unicamp classified some tornadoes with the EBRAV, with the Itu tornado on September 30, 1991, being the only one recorded as level 7,although few cases have been analyzed, focusing on events in the state of São Paulo.

Events

This list only has records documented and cited in reliable articles.

Pre-1950

• September 14, 1921 – A tornado struck the town of Chavantes, in the state of São Paulo, causing much destruction. The tornado destroyed brick homes, uprooted power lines and fences, damaged farms, and destroyed crops. In total, seven people died and many were injured. Several animals were also killed. At the time, the event was called a cyclone, but the characteristics of the reports indicate it was a tornado. ^{[4] [5]}
• October 24, 1927 – A multi-vortex tornado struck the city of Ponta Grossa in Paraná State, causing many destruction, killing 3 people and injuring severe others. The tornado was officially classified as E/F2. ^[6]

• May 16, 1948 – A violent nighttime tornado struck Valinhos, in the interior of the municipality of Canoinhas, in Santa Catarina. Several homes, a school, and a church were completely destroyed. A sawmill was also destroyed, and the wooden planks located there were turned into projectiles, resulting in fatal injuries to animals and people. Many of these projectiles were embedded in trees. In addition, other trees were uprooted and left without bark. People were found far from their homes, many already dead, and some of them naked. Eighteen people died instantly, and another five died in the hospital (23 deaths in total). Officially, the tornado was classified as an F3, with winds estimated at 300 km/h (186 mph). However, much of the damage is consistent with an F4 tornado, and many storm chasers consider it to be of that intensity. ^[7]

1950-1959

• May 18, 1955 – A strong tornado struck Serra das Mortes, in the interior of Canoinhas. Wooden houses were destroyed and thrown into the air. The tornado injured at least four people. Another tornado may have struck Papanduva, resulting in the destruction of homes and nine deaths. ^[8]
• May 1957 – A tornado measuring 300 to 400 meters (984 to 1,312 ft) wide destroyed farms and buildings from Guarapuava to Cascavel, Paraná, in addition to uprooting trees and piling them on top of each other. The tornado left a visible and well-defined path, possibly an F3+ or higher. ^[9]

Tornadoes confirmed in southern and southeast Brazil on September 7,2009

Date	F/EF#	Deaths	Injuries	Location
September 7, 2009	F4	4	74	Guaraciaba(SC)
Around 9 p.m., an extremely violent tornado caused total destruction, from houses to trees. It hit more than five communities in Guaraciaba, some of them with severe damage. One house was thrown more than 50 meters, with its residents inside, resulting in injuries. Another house was also thrown about 50 meters, with a woman inside, resulting in her death. A resident reported seeing his neighbor's cows spinning along with the funnel. A refrigerator was thrown more than 100 meters. Another resident had his house completely destroyed, with the debris falling more than 50 meters away. He was sucked into the tornado and thrown 70 meters, but survived. A house, partially made of wood and the rest of masonry, was lifted off the ground, with its residents displaced about 150 meters away. The resident of the house reported that even the floorboards were missing. Many houses were left with only the bathroom standing, and others were completely destroyed. The church was completely destroyed. Eucalyptus plantations of up to three hectares were wiped off the map. Trees were violently cut, snapped, and twisted, many uprooted. Poultry farms were completely destroyed. A photo was found 240 km away, in the municipality of Aratiba, Rio Grande do Sul. The tornado killed four people, injured more than 70, and was described as: "You can see the path of the tornado and how it destroyed everything in its path. It looks like television scenes, like wartime bombings. I've never seen anything like it before," reported the city's police chief after watching aerial footage. Furthermore, the tornado caused an estimated 160 million reais (R$ in 2009). Classified as an F3 by a meteorologist/researcher at the University of São Paulo (USP), however, there is consensus among meteorologists that it was a violent F4 tornado. In 2025, during an article about the favorable conditions for tornado formation in western Santa Catarina, a meteorologist classified it as an F4 or possibly F5, an opinion shared by many enthusiasts and some meteorologists. There is only one broad track in Guaraciaba, caused by one tornado, not three. The tornado emerged when the supercell was in an occlusion state, shortly after spawning the F4+ San Pedro tornado, in Argentina. The San Pedro tornado has damage consistent with that of an F5 tornado. [66] [67] [68] [32] [69]

It caused damage to 2,188 homes, with some completely destroyed; 9 public facilities were damaged or destroyed; 38 companies registered total or partial damage. An analysis was made and published in July of that same year.

Another house was completely obliterated. However, nearby power poles remained partially intact and standing. A large truck was overturned and dragged. The walls of a gymnasium collapsed, although it did not have internal walls, only external ones, which meant that the classification did not increase to F3. A radar, 7 km away (4.3 mi), captured winds of approximately 84 km/h (52 mph). This led to an estimated wind speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). The TV report showed further damage, such as violently twisted power poles, some weighing 15 tons, broken or uprooted. The overturned truck may have been thrown, as the truck owner reported that there was no evidence of the truck being overturned and dragged. The tornado resulted in 4 deaths (+2 indirect) and approximately 140 injuries. It is considered the best documented tornado in Brazil.
