This page documents all tornadoes confirmed by various weather forecast offices of the National Weather Service in the United States from January to March 2018.
[1] 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.
[2] A small late-January outbreak produced over a dozen tornadoes, but the month was otherwise quiet and finished below average with 15 tornadoes.
A larger and more significant outbreak occurred in late-February, which pushed the month well above average with 51 tornadoes.
A few sizeable outbreaks also occurred in March, but the month was still well below average with only 55 tornadoes.
