Top U.S. tornado videos of 2013

A general under-performance of tornado activity continued for the second straight year across the United States during 2013. But what the country missed in pure numbers, it made up for in powerful events.

While the largest tornado outbreaks occurred in times typically not noted as the main tornado season, spring was full of dangerous days, with the majority of the violent tornado activity centered on May.

All years: 2022 | 2021 | 2020 | 2019 | 2018 | 2017 | 2016 | 2015 | 2014 | 2013 | 2012

In a number of instances below, there may have been several top videos that could have been selected. Rozel, Moore, Bennington, El Reno and the November 17 outbreak in particular all had their fair share of striking videos.
