Summer in the United States featured a long-lasting heat wave, which led to 117 deaths and $9.3 billion in damage.[40] October 2022 was the hottest on record for Washington State.[41]

### Tornadoes[edit]

Main article: Tornadoes of 2022

The strongest tornado of 2022 impacted Pembroke and Black Creek in Georgia at EF4 intensity, with winds estimated at 185 miles per hour (298 km/h).[42][43]

Worldwide, 33 tornado-related deaths have been confirmed: 24 in the United States, three in China, two each in Poland and Russia, and one each in the Netherlands and Ukraine.[citation needed]

The first tornadic fatality of the year occurred on February 3, when an EF2 tornado struck Sawyerville, Alabama, killing one person.[44] A tornado outbreak occurred in Poland with at least 11 tornadoes on February 17, resulting in 2 fatalities and 5 injuries. 6 of the 11 tornadoes have been rated F2.[45]

March saw a record number of tornadoes[46] and 3 major outbreaks: 5-7, 21-23, and 29-31. The first tornado outbreak, despite being the smallest, is the deadliest tornado outbreak of 2022, causing 7 deaths[47] of which six were in a low-end EF4 tornado that also caused 5 injuries and $220 million.[48][49][50][51] The next tornado outbreak caused 3 deaths, plus 3 due to flash flooding in Alabama[52] and one indirect death due to the 2022 New Orleans tornado. This EF3 tornado causes direct and indirect death, at least two injuries, and $32.5 million in damage,[53][54][55] as well as 16,000 power outages.[56] The final tornado outbreak is the largest, causing 90 tornadoes. It also causes 3 fatalities. An EF3 tornado in Florida early on March 31 caused two fatalities.[57] Total damage from the storm reached $1.3 billion.[40]

In April, tornadic activity died down a bit, but still featured a tornado outbreak of 87 tornadoes early in the month. That outbreak caused a tornadic death due to an EF4 tornado in Georgia.[58] A storm complex in mid-April also results in a large tornado outbreak, but without fatalities. An EF3 tornado in Texas caused 23 injuries and $100,000 in damage.[59][60] On April 29, an EF3 tornado near Andover, Kansas caused $41.5 million.[61][62]

Tornadic activity slowed significantly after April. However, a significant tornado outbreak did occur across the US and Canada in mid to late May. This included an EF3 tornado in Gaylord, Michigan that caused 2 deaths, 44 injuries and $50.175 million in damage.[63] The storm also helps fuel the May 2022 Canadian derecho that causes 11 deaths.[64] A day before, a European tornado outbreak spawns 9 tornadoes that result in 46 injuries.[65][66] After that, the next significant outbreak isn't for two months, until July 20. A tornado outbreak in China caused 3 deaths and 26 injuries.[67][68][69][70][citation needed]
