Reflectivity (left) and relative velocity (right) radar loops of a thunderstorm that spawned an EF2 tornado in Longview, Texas , on December 23
Between November and December 2009, 51 tornadoes touched down across eight states.[ note 1] Collectively, the tornadoes injured nine people and wrought $20.36 million,[ note 2] much of which resulted from an EF3 —the strongest tornado during the two-month period—that struck Lufkin, Texas , on December 23.[ 1] Compared to annual averages, November was one of the quietest on record while December was one of the most active on record for their respective months. With only three confirmed events in November, the month ranks as the third quietest on record since 1950.[ note 3] [ 2] The opposite is true for December, during which 45 tornadoes touched down; at the time, this was the second highest since 2000 and the sixth highest since reliable records began.[ 4]
The month of November featured no tornado outbreaks [ note 4] while December featured two. The first spawned 7 tornadoes on December 2 and the second, more prolific event, resulted in 28 tornadoes from December 23–24.[ 4] Twelve tornadoes touched down within the warning area of the National Weather Service office in Lake Charles, Louisiana —the largest such event in their jurisdiction since November 23, 2004.[ 6] Both outbreaks were the result of strong extratropical cyclones that moved across the Southern United States , with tornadoes primarily developing along a cold front that extended south of the system's center or within supercells ahead of the front.[ 4]

^ Event listings by the National Climatic Data Center are divided by county. As such, tornadoes that track across multiple counties are split into multiple summaries and the total number of event listings does not represent the actual number of tornadoes.
^ All damage totals are in 2009 USD unless otherwise stated.
^ Extensive tornado records, compiled by the National Climatic Data Center, begin in 1950;[ 2] however, it is widely known that improving technology and reports from storm chasers have improved the comprehensiveness of data in recent years and countless tornadoes in older years have gone undocumented.[ 3]
^ Although no official definition of a tornado outbreak exists, Grazulis (1993) describes one as "a group or family of six or more tornadoes spawned by the same general weather system."[ 3] Galway (1975) described events with 6–9 tornadoes as small, 10–19 as moderate, and ≥20 as large.[ 3] Furthermore, an outbreak in Florida—south of 30°N —is defined by Hagemeyer and Matney (1994) as "four or more tornadoes in [four] hours or less."[ 5]
