This page documents notable tornadoes and tornado outbreaks worldwide in 2026. Strong and destructive tornadoes form most frequently in the United States, China, the Pampas, the European Plain, South Africa, and Bengal, but they can occur almost anywhere under the right conditions. Tornadoes also develop occasionally in southern Canada during the Northern Hemisphere's summer and somewhat regularly at other times of the year across Europe, Asia, and Australia. Tornadic events are often accompanied by other forms of severe weather, including strong thunderstorms, winds, and hail.

During the evening hours of January 7, a strong tornado tracked through Kalpaki, Greece, causing significant damage to numerous structures. A large poultry farm was destroyed, with the walls collapsing and killing 30,000 to 40,000 chickens that were inside. A church and a military camp were also damaged.[1][2][3] The tornado struck a car, completely overturning it in the middle of the roadway. The driver avoided any injuries due to local residents who rushed to assist.[4] The tornado was rated IF2 on the International Fujita Scale.[5]

A small tornado event occurred in Oklahoma early on January 8, with five tornadoes being confirmed, one of which was rated low-end EF2 after it tore the roof off of a house southwest of Purcell.[6][7] This tornado caused one injury along its path when it rolled a semi-truck as it crossed I-35 and also caused considerable damage in the town itself.[8][9] The storms also brought an 88 mph (142 km/h) wind gust to Wynona, Oklahoma and an 81 mph (130 km/h) wind gust to Independence, Kansas. There were five additional tornadoes on January 9 and also on January 10. On January 9, Chicago recorded a 55 mph (89 km/h) wind gust.[10]

On the early evening of January 8, an IF2-rated tornado tracked through the villages of Karacalar and Sülek in the Mediterranean region of Turkey. The roofs of six buildings were ripped away and numerous greenhouses were destroyed. The walls of various barns collapsed and trees along the tornado's path were uprooted and splintered. Several vehicles were damaged by the tornado, including a Fiat that was thrown into a nearby tractor, which struck a 20-year-old woman who sustained non-life-threatening injuries from the impact.[5][11][12]

January 10 (Brazil)

[edit]

On the afternoon of January 10, an F2 tornado struck the city of São José dos Pinhais in the Metropolitan Region of Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil, with peak winds estimated at 180 km/h (110 mph).[13][14] An estimated 1,200 people were affected, including two people sustaining minor injuries and two families displaced. At least 350 homes were impacted, several trees were overturned, and a warehouse was wrecked. In addition, multiple utility poles were toppled by the winds, causing some damage to the electrical grid.[14][15]
