This page documents all tornadoes confirmed by various weather forecast offices of the National Weather Service in the United States in June 2023. On average, there are 213 confirmed tornadoes during the month.[1] These tornadoes are commonly focused across the Midwest and the central and northern Great Plains, and occasionally the Northeast, all due to their proximity to the late spring/early summer jet stream which continues to retreat farther north. Additionally, activity can sometimes increase in the Florida Peninsula as a result of early-season tropical activity.[2]
The month began with relatively little tornado activity as there were only a small number of tornado reports in the first 10 days of June and all were weak. Thereafter, an unusual weather pattern for the season developed, with a displaced jet stream for mid-June resulting in multiple rounds of severe weather primarily across the Southern United States, which led to a significant increase in the month's tornado count. The weather pattern then shifted back northward, bringing more rounds of severe and tornadic weather to the Great Plains and Mississippi Valley in late June. During that period, well over 200 tornadoes occurred across the US. Overall, activity for the month finished well above average with 275 tornadoes, making June the most active month of 2023 and the most active June since 2014.
Several storm chasers reported this tornado that lifted a few minutes after it was reported. The tornado stayed in a rural area as it moved southeast over railroad tracks before lifting prior to crossing FM 2037. No damage occurred.[7]>
A barn had part of its roof blown off, and livestock pens and shelters were destroyed. A house suffered gutter damage, and a nearby tractor had its windows blown out. Several irrigation pivots were overturned, trees were damaged, and a few head of cattle were injured and had to be euthanized.[12]
A well-documented tornado remained on the ground for nearly an hour and crossed the international border into Mexico where it likely continued on. It moved through a remote area and any damage that may have occurred was inaccessible.[13]
A brief high-end EF0 tornado touched down in the southeastern part of Amarillo. It tossed an air conditioning unit off a dry cleaning business, blew out part of a sign at a coffee shop, knocked down the brick siding of a gas station, and inflicted minor damage to a drive-in restaurant.
