Rarely. The Tundra has a very dry climate, so it is not very often that it would precipitate, but on the other hand, it is very windy due to a lack of vegetation. So yes, on occasion, there could be a blizzard in the Tundra.

Tornadoes form when warm, moist air collides with cold, dry air, creating instability in the atmosphere. The tundra has a cold, stable climate with low humidity and limited temperature contrasts, making it unlikely for the conditions necessary for tornado formation to occur.
