There were 15,701 tornadoes in the U.S. in the years 2000-2011 with a preliminary count of 919 so far in 2012, bringing the total to 16,620. So far 2012 has probably had more tornadoes than the preliminary count indicates. So that figure will probably rise as some reports of minor tornadoes file in late.
