Early September 2026 conditions feature a transitioning pattern with a mid-level ridge over the central U.S. limiting widespread wind shear and lift, while Gulf moisture supports isolated thunderstorms mainly in the Southeast and northern Plains. Official SPC outlooks highlight marginal-to-slight severe risks focused on damaging winds and hail rather than tornadoes, consistent with climatological declines in activity after summer peaks. Historical September averages range 50–80 tornadoes, but counts vary sharply due to tropical cyclone remnants that can spike totals via enhanced low-level shear and instability. Trader consensus near 25–74 reflects uncertainty over whether quiet atmospheric setups or any late-season Gulf systems will dominate the remainder of the month.

Only tornadoes appearing in the final NCEI dataset for that month will count.
The brackets are mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive: each range is inclusive of both of its stated endpoints, and the monthly tornado count falls within exactly one bracket.
As of market creation, the relevant report is scheduled to be released on October 14, 2026 at 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, 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.
