List of Philippine tornadoes
The Philippines experiences an average of 8 tornadoes annually, although most of them are relatively weak and short-lived. It is not uncommon for tornadoes to happen in the country. The average intensities can range from EF0 to EF1, with the highest, albeit rare EF2 intensities in the Enhanced Fujita scale (EF Scale), although some are identified as EFU due to insufficient data. As of 2024, the highest tornadic activity was recorded in 2022 with a total number of 37 reported tornadoes. Overall, there are a total number of 326 documented tornadoes in the country between 1969 and 2024.[1] These tornadoes tend to be mild compared to the strong tornadoes in the United States.[2] Waterspouts are also a general occurrence in the area, but in some instances, these can classify as a tornado once it reaches land. Most of these tornadoes typically form during the wet season and sometimes accompanied by typhoons.
Climatology
A tornado, also known locally as buhawi or ipo-ipo,[a] is a violently rotating column of air that descends from the base of a thunderstorm onto the ground. They typically form during severe thuderstorms or in the right-front quadrant of tropical cyclones, relative to its track with tropical storm intensity. Around half of tropical cylones can produce tornadoes in regions where the air has a brief trajectory over land, paired together with a strong convection.[4]
The country is situated near the equator with a tropical climate, characterized by relatively high temperature, high humidity, and abundant rainfall. It is also located west from the Pacific Ocean, making the country susceptible to natural disasters including typhoons. During the wet season, the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) shifts up north into the country. Warm, moist air is pushed upwards into the atmosphere due to trade winds, which then cools and condenses into moisture, causing an increase in severe thunderstorms and tropical cyclones.[5] The southwest moonsoon or habagat also influences severe weather as warm, moist air travel towards the northeast portion of the country, causing heavy rainfall.[6]
There are multiple tornado hotspots in the Philippines, with Central Luzon and the Greater Manila Area having the most recorded tornadic activity. Luzon is surrounded by the Zambales Mountain Range to the west and the Sierra Madre Mountain Range to the east which influences atmospheric instability through orographic effect. Manila Bay also contributes by bringing warm, humid air towards the regions.[7][8] Another tornado hotspot is located in central Mindanao, where tornadoes are heavily concentrated in Cotabato due to a similar effect.[9] Paired with wind shears and weather conditions that are brought by monsoons or typhoons, they increase the chances for tornadoes to develop. The flash rate density in these areas are significantly higher compared to Visayas which only has two known smaller tornado hotspots, specifically in the western and central regions.[10][11] However, it is not yet possible to determine the influence of atmospheric oscillations on the formation of tornadoes due to insufficient data.[1]
The most notable tornado incident is the Manila tornado, where an EF1 tornado swept through Metro Manila and was accompanied by heavy monsoon rains.[12] It damaged more than 100 buildings and injured 2 people.[13] Another notable example is an extremely rare EF2 tornado in Arayat, Pampanga during Typhoon Ewiniar on May 27, 2024. This tornado reached estimated wind speeds of up to 201 km/h (125 mph), damaging at least 30 houses and 2 school buildings. Fortunately, no one was reported injured from the tornado.[14] The first known tornado recorded in the country was on June 13, 1968 in Pampanga in which 40 houses were destroyed, 42 people were injured, and 12 people were killed in Macabebe and Masantol.[15][16] The deadliest tornado on record was on December 19, 2003 in San Ricardo, Southern Leyte where at least 60 houses were damaged and 50 people were killed by an F2 tornado.[17][18] Another deadly tornado happened on June 12, 1990 in Manukan, Zamboanga del Norte where an F2 tornado destroyed at least 59 houses, injured more than 100 people, and killed 36 people.[19][20]
Distribution of tornadoes
The active season begins in March wherein a number of severe weather events start to increase, including hail and tornadic activity. Tornado season occurs early in Mindanao on the month of April, while cases of tornadic activity in Luzon emerge in May.[21] The initial peak of the active season occurs in June wherein severe weather events are scattered across the country and tornado events are underway, aided by the southwest monsoon. Documented reports of tornadoes increase from June to August, especially in the country's tornado hotspots.[22] By September, the active season begins to dwindle due to the arrival of the northeast monsoon, especially in Luzon and Visayas with the exception of Mindanao in which the tornado season still remains active until November.[9] Eventually, the season dies down in December with only a few documented cases of severe weather events being reported.[1]
| January | February | March | April | May | June | July | August | September | October | November | December | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No. of tornadoes | 5 | 5 | 14 | 24 | 51 | 49 | 50 | 53 | 28 | 23 | 16 | 7 |
Some of these tornadoes go unreported due to them being too weak to cause damages or they touch down on rural areas with little to no population. Although since 2009, reports of tornadoes have increased due to the rise of internet access in the country, primarily through social media and news outlets.[24]

Tornado advisories
The country currently does not have an active tornado alert system in place. The meteorological agency, PAGASA, stated that they do not have the capability to set tornado warnings or tornado bulletins yet.[25][26] Instead, they rely on doppler weather radars and storm chasers on the ground to gather data on tornadoes. Thunderstorm advisories are often issued by PAGASA for severe thunderstorms.[27]
Since 2018, PAGASA launched their total lightning detection network, consisting of 28 lightning detectors that are stationed across the country in order to acquire real-time data on lightning activity. This allows meteorologists to forecast weather conditions and improve early warning systems and advisories, including thunderstorms and severe weather events such as hailstorms and tornadoes. The network was utilized during the Bacolor tornado on June 22, 2023, wherein a surge of lightning activity was observed on the western side of Luzon, particularly in Pampanga, and prompted a thunderstorm advisory.[28][29]
Tornadoes with casualties
This list includes confirmed tornado incidents that had reported casualties. Tornado F and EF ratings are not official since PAGASA does not have the capability to identify tornado intensities. Instead, ratings are estimated according to the Severe Weather Archive of the Philippines. Some tornadoes are rated as EFU due to lack of available data on damage assessment.[30]
