Narrative:

On approach to ZZZ runway xx; thunderstorms were approaching from the west. Fuel state enough for one approach and ZZZ1 filed alternate. Aircraft reported large airspeed loss on short final before touchdown with weather encroaching on departure end. Conditions unsafe to land; elected go around and requested vectors for ZZZ1. While vectored to ZZZ1; ATC reported same conditions at ZZZ1. Requested ZZZ2; ATC informed aircraft were holding for weather at ZZZ2. Requested ZZZ3; ATC informed weather same there. Can't remember exactly when emergency fuel was declared however it was done quickly; either when considering ZZZ2 or ZZZ3. ATC informed weather was clearing west side of ZZZ airport; aircraft radar confirmed. Elected approach to ZZZ runway yy. Elected to discontinue approach due to weather conditions on final and proceeded direct a non scheduled airport. Landed with low fuel state.
