This market will resolve according to the number of tornadoes recorded in the United States during the specified month, based on the monthly count published on the National Centers for Environmental Information U.S. Tornadoes Time Series page (see: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/tornadoes/time-series). Only tornadoes appearing in the final NCEI dataset for that month will count. As of market creation, the relevant report is scheduled to be released on May 8, 2026, at 5:00 PM GMT+1 or 11:00 AM ET (Release schedule: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/dyk/monthly-releases). The market will resolve based on the first relevant tornado count published on the NCEI tornado time-series page after this scheduled release time. If the value published after this scheduled release time is labeled preliminary, it will still determine resolution, and the market will resolve independently of any subsequent revisions, corrections, or retroactive adjustments. The market will not resolve based on any preliminary values published before the scheduled release time. If no data is published by the scheduled release time, or if the NCEI website is temporarily unavailable, this market will remain open until that data is made available. If the relevant data is not made available by the date of the next scheduled publication ET, this market will resolve based on available data for the most recent prior month. If the NCEI website becomes permanently unavailable, this market will resolve using another credible source.Preliminary Storm Prediction Center data through April 27 logs over 300 tornado reports across the US, well above the 1991–2020 April average of 182, driven by multiple outbreaks including 130 tornadoes in the April 23–28 sequence (featuring an EF4 near Enid, Oklahoma), over 50 on April 17 in the Upper Midwest, and dozens on April 13–14 amid supercell-favorable conditions like CAPE exceeding 2,000 J/kg, strong vertical wind shear, and Gulf moisture influx. Trader consensus tilts slightly toward 260–289 (51%) over 290–319 (44.6%), reflecting uncertainty in National Weather Service surveys that historically confirm about 65% of raw reports; final NCEI count, due May 8, hinges on validation of marginal events from late outbreaks, with minimal activity on April 29–30 limiting upside.
