List of United States tornadoes from January to March 2015

This is a list of all tornadoes that were confirmed by local offices of the National Weather Service in the United States from January to March 2015. Based on the 1991–2010 average, 35 tornadoes touch down in January, 29 touch down in February and 80 touch down in March. These tornadoes are commonly focused across the Southern United States due to their proximity to the unstable airmass and warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, as well as California in association with winter storms.

Other than a moderate outbreak at the beginning of the month, January was quiet with 27 tornadoes touching down, which was slightly below average. Tornado activity in February and March was essentially non-existent and both months were significantly below average. February had only two tornadoes, and all ten tornadoes during the month of March touched down during a small outbreak between March 24–25 in Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri.
