List of United States tornadoes from November to December 2025

Last updated

This page documents all tornadoes confirmed by various weather forecast offices of the National Weather Service in the United States during November and December 2025. Tornado counts are considered preliminary until final publication in the database of the National Centers for Environmental Information. On average, there are 54 tornadoes in November and 28 tornadoes in December. These tornadoes are more likely in the southern states due to their proximity to the unstable airmass and warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, with occasional incursions farther north into the Midwest, particularly in November.
