Twin landspouts south of Milton-Freewater, Oregon on March 5.
A tornado south of Hinckley, Illinois on February 27.

This page documents all tornadoes confirmed by various weather forecast offices of the National Weather Service in the United States in January and February 2024. Tornado counts are considered preliminary until final publication in the database of the National Centers for Environmental Information.[1] Based on the 1991–2020 average, about 39 tornadoes are typically recorded across the United States during January and about 36 tornadoes are recorded in February.[2] These tornadoes are commonly focused across the Southern United States due to their proximity to the unstable airmass and warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, as well as California in association with winter storms in those three months.[3] That said, with the arrival of springtime, the activity begins to shift northward especially later in March.[4]

January saw average levels of tornado activity, focused heavily on a single outbreak early in the month in the climatologically-favored Deep South. In constrast, February had slightly above average levels of tornado activity, however, many of them occurred far to the north of typical for the month, in the Midwest and Great Lakes regions. These were mainly focused in an outbreak at the end of the month.
