Severe Weather 2026

Doesn’t surprise me that this year has been fairly active in terms of total tornadoes, but it’s definitely lacking from a strong/violent standpoint. Enid and Kouts are the two that stick out to me, but nothing much else.
It’s been an average year I would say for chasing prospects and memorable tornadoes. Not too bad like 2018, 2020. But also not like 2024, 2025.

It was unique in the fact that the season had highly active focal points like Illinois. Yet you had several days spanning from March to June that were conditionally and locally intense in several regions, and at weird times–like Mississippi in May.

I think 2025 was a far more versatile, memorable, and intense tornado season.
