Greg McDougle walks near debris Friday, March 15, 2024, following a severe storm in Lakeview, Ohio . in a normal year. That puts 2024 in the Top 10 for tornado years in Ohio and on its way to possibly be a record-setting 12 months.Ten of them happened on Feb. 27 and 28. February tornadoes are unusual to start with, let alone a full outbreak. Seven touched down on March 14, including the devastating EF3 that ravaged the Indian Lake area. Another nine hit on April 2 with five following on April 17.
That combination has created some explosive storms with enough energy and rotation to generate tornadoes .On average Ohio endured 13 to 17 tornadoes each year from 1950-2022. The number of twisters has already doubled that range and that is even before the usual severe weather season begins next month. Ohio’s peak tornado months tend to be May, June, and July, averaging three to four twisters per month.
Franklin County is second with 34, followed by Miami , Lorain and Clinton , and Clark and Huron Counties . Morgan County is the least tornadic of Ohio’s 88 counties, reporting only one touchdown between 1950 and 2022.
