Significant Tornado Events - Global Edition

It’s more likely debris craters from something being rolled.
Yeah on second glance I think you’re right. There’s clearly quite a bit of clear pock marking visible from debris impacts. I’d say likely multiple objects being thrown, and probably bounced along the ground, as I see multiple linear paths of impact marks.
 
Big ask, but would anyone be willing to post a full list of the tornadoes and their ratings from this outbreak? It’s unfortunate that South America doesn’t have an easy to navigate public tornado database like the US, Canada, and Europe.

Edit: Actually never mind, it looks like there is one based on posts from earlier. Gonna have to look into that.
https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lista_de_tornados_no_Brasil_(2025-)# this wikipedia article lists all tornadoes in Brazil from 2025 onwards, there is also another for 1800-2024.

In general, the Civil Defense agencies of each Brazilian state conduct damage assessments, but most of these studies are quite poor since they have little experience dealing with tornadoes.

More recently, a group of meteorologists connected to Brazilian universities started a project to catalog and document tornadoes, but it’s still in a very early stage. What the team does is post daily forecasts and then update the reports as new information comes in.

Video of the Rio Bonito tornado. Large rain-wrapped wedge as one would expect given the radar signature and width of the damage path.

Note that I’ve geolocated where this video was taken (Highway 158 SW of town as it was entering town driving NE) and can confirm this is a real video, since I’ve seen several AI “images” of the funnel.
