I believe the article should be moved, if not to New York City tornado of 2007, then to Brooklyn tornado of 2007. Not only is New York City more accurate than Brooklyn (it touched down on Staten Island), but having a year at the beginning is against conventions (I think) and IMO ugly. - Running On Brains 11:22, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
The current revision (Saturday night about 11 eastern) has changed the sentence to:
The New York Post reports http://www.nypost.com/seven/08102007/news/regionalnews/from_staten_is__to_bklyn_regionalnews_john_doyle__jeremy__olshan_and_lukas_i__alpert.htm
Consequently I'm putting a cn on the new info.

The article seems well-written and for the most part well-sourced. In my view it is too bad that the tag saying approximately that "contains text from public domain source" is needed. It impugns the work done by wikipedia editors. Can't the specific material from the one source be identified and put in proper quotes, then remove that tag, instead? Just because some text is public domain doesn't mean it does not need to be referenced just like any other text. And if it is referenced properly, put in quotes as necessary, then that tag would not be needed. doncram ( talk) 17:10, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
The final track records of 2007 show that there was only one EF-2 tornado that touched down in the Brooklyn area. The damages were not shown on the file as well. The tornado touched down at 10:22 UTC (6:22 EST) at 40.63N, 74.11W. The tornado tracked for 5.9 miles and had a maximum width of 100 yards. 9 people were injured in the event.

Ok, thank you, he'll be able to clear this up for us :). Cyclonebiskit ( talk) 11:23, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
I've moved the article to include the second tornado and lowed the class to start since the article is lacking comprehensiveness. It's lacking responses to the tornado and the full impacts of the flooding produced by the thunderstorm. The MTA has a hefty report on the whole thing, since it basically shut down the subways with a months worth of rain in a few hours. Cyclone biskit 06:18, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
In the description given it says that there were no fatalities or injuries linked with the tornado. Yet in the same article it quotes a Daily News article as linking a death ("S.I. driver dies") with the tornado. Which is it? 141.155.130.163 ( talk) 19:17, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Will we mention the flood death as a non tornadic death, or no? 69.118.232.58 ( talk) 20:21, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
