It varies, as tornado activity is not evenly distributed througout the year and varies from one year to the next. It also depends on if the strongest tornadoes hit populated areas. Here are the totals and annual averages from US tornadoes from 1950 to 2012.
- January: 140 (2.6 per year)
- February: 451 (8.5 per year)
- March: 721 (13.6 per year)
- April: 1,769 (33.4 per year)
- May: 1,253 (23.6 per year)
- June: 566 (10.7 per year)
- July: 67 (1.3 per year)
- August: 125 (2.4 per year)
- September: 95 (1.8 per year)
- October: 99 (1.9 per year)
- November: 251 (4.7 per year)
- December: 154 (2.9 per year)
Because aveages can be skewed upward by unusually deadly events and fatalities have been reduced by improved warnings, actual figures are likely lower than the listed averages.
Note that the deadliest month for tornadoes varies from one year to the next depending on when tornado acitvoty peaks. Most often it is April or May, but, for example, most US tornado deaths in 2005 were in November. Figures for a given month can vary as well. For example, April 2005 saw no deaths from tornadoes in the US while April 2011 saw 363 tornado deaths in the US, making it the deadliest month for tornadoes since April 1936.
