After diverting a sharknado over Washington, D.C., Medal of Freedom and Order of the Golden Chainsaw recipient Finley "Fin" Shepard (Ian Ziering) heads for Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida to join his pregnant wife April (Tara Reid), their teenage daughter Claudia (Ryan Whitney), and April's mother May Wexler (Bo Derek). Along the way, he also runs into sharknado survivor turned warrior Nova Clarke (Cassandra Scerbo). Meanwhile, more sharknadoes are developing, and the sharknado hunters fear that the individual storms may converge into a massive sharknado wall and destroy the entire eastern seaboard.

Sharknado 3 is the third movie in the made-for-television disaster film series Sharknado, all of which have been based on screenplays by American screenwriter/director Thunder Levin. It is preceded by Sharknado (2013) (2013) and Sharknado 2: The Second One (2014) (2014), and followed by Sharknado 4 : Le 4ᵉ réveil (2016) (2016), and Sharknado 5: Global Swarming (2017) (2017).

Nova clears a hole in the sharknado wall, allowing Fin, April, and Colonel Gil (David Hasselhoff) to successfully launch the Independence space shuttle, but they run into another problem when the rocket doesn't break up the storm wall. Gil decides to try using the Strategic Defense System (SDI) satellite, but it requires that he leave the shuttle in order to manually reboot the SDI laser. Consequently, the sharknado wall collapses, but the sharks are propelled into space and begin attacking the Independence. Fin and April are separately eaten by large sharks just before the shuttle explodes into bits, sending all the sharks back to earth where they start to rain upon the beaches. Fin crawls out of one shark's belly while April uses a chainsaw to slice her way, along with her newborn son, out of the other shark. When asked what he's going to name his son, Fin looks up into space and announces that he's going to be name him "Gil", after his father. Meanwhile, Gil has landed on the moon. In the final scene, April bends over to pick up the wings given to them by the Colonel...just as a large fragment of the space shuttle hurtles out of the sky, headed directly for April. A note then appears, inviting the viewing audience to register their votes at #AprilLives, #AprilDies, or Sharknado.Syfy.com, as to whether April survives, the results of which to be revealed in Sharknado 4.
