Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited January 29–30, 2013 tornado outbreak, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Georgia ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

I know why you think it deserves a section, but we can't keep adding all of those tornadoes into the main page. The path was only 47 miles (76 km), which is one reason it shouldn't be included (the other reasons being that it wasn't EF5 and it didn't hit a big town). The only reason I added Cordova and Uniontown was because they had path lengths of over 100 miles (160 km). Both the Higdon and Fackler tornadoes could have sections, but I would be against it due to the fact that the page is getting too long. United States Man ( talk) 23:34, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
First of all, you have once again failed WP:ASG and WP:NPA with that hateful message. But, I am probably guilty of ASG myself. The revert this time was because the car was already stated further down the paragraph. Before you accuse me of not reading, you need to read yourself. I don't delete sourced information for the fun of it, I delete it if I deem the information unnecessary. Don't pin this all on me, we are both at fault here. United States Man ( talk) 04:17, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
Exactly, so compromise needs to be an option here. Sharkguy05 ( talk) 04:39, 8 June 2013 (UTC)Sharkguy05
Please do not continue your constant reverting. You've already violated WP:3RR and continued action will be considered intentionally disruptive. Talk it out with the other editor before continuing to edit the January 29–30, 2013 tornado outbreak. Cyclonebiskit ( talk) 04:46, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
I would be very happy to go with what you're saying about the home, but the problem is that breaches WP:OR. You're deriving your own conclusions from an image with no text from the source to back it up. Cyclonebiskit ( talk) 20:36, 30 June 2013 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to List of F5 and EF5 tornadoes, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. No more of this. Although Grazulis is reliable, if there are other sources (which there are) it would be best to go by them (the NCDC pdf) since the Grazulis info isn't entirely available online. Anymore reverting and I will start a discussion here. One of the main WP guidelines is the statement: If you do not want your work to be edited, used, and redistributed by others, then do not submit it here. Good day.

I am glad that you asked to verify my sources. While I do not own the books cited and have not read all the information found in those sources, I have heard from credible people (on other Web sites) who have, and while their information seemed to corroborate most of the accounts from J. B. Elliott, they also seemed to indicate that the accounts were, in whole or in part, independently available from the said books. I will explain further. First: the information on the Xenia tornado's removal of sidewalk pavers is actually taken from someone who knew a relative in his family who was present in the aftermath at Xenia and recalled seeing the damage described. While I am not sure that the information is stated in the Xenia sources that I added, those sources include numerous photos of the damage, and I recall having seen a photocopy of one of the photos that showed the damage to the sidewalks and the ground scouring. The data on the Guin tornado's forward movement was actually stated on the back of the book by C. F. Boone, where a radar operator at Centreville recalled seeing the Guin supercell moving at 113 miles per hour (182 km/h). Since J. B. Elliott mentioned this information along with the other stuff in his accounts, he was probably alluding to data that he culled from a body of sources. Since he once recommended, to my recollection, the sources that I listed for further information on the Tanner and Guin tornadoes, I am assuming that his claims came from the sources that I listed. Also, I am absolutely certain that I have seen Guin photocopies from the Jordan (1987) book showing ground scouring from the air--this was an actual aerial photograph of Guin, not the satellite photo that appears in the green book. In summation, while I am not absolutely, 100% certain that my sources contain all the claims cited herein, I am quite confident that the data came from those sources. I have only seen some photocopies from these sources that have served as support for this hunch. I would recommend trying to locate the sources and reading them in whole. Again, as I am not 100% confident, feel free to remove the data if need be. CapeVerdeWave ( talk) 22:01, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

The most appropriate formatting for tornado tables against WP:MOS was already determined earlier this year. I went through an ugly FLC with the List of tornadoes in the 1999 Oklahoma tornado outbreak just for this purpose. There are no places where bold is necessary across the table. Please use this as an example for all future tables as well. There's an enormous amount of work that needs to be done to fix up older ones as well in order to comply with WP:MOS, but I doubt that will happen anytime soon...

I am curious as to why you removed my picture-based references to ground scouring in Early-May 1965 tornado outbreak sequence. For the reference to ground scouring on the April 1977 Birmingham tornado, I referred to a picture that showed, or appeared to show, a broad area of ground scouring, and when I gave the photographic source to you, you never said I could not use it. Also, several of the tornadoes on the F5 list, including the Udall tornado (for which the ground scouring detail was your addition, not mine, if I recall correctly), mention ground scouring that is not explicitly stated in sources but is visible in photographs. Please try to be a little consistent, or explain why I am wrong here. If I am not supposed to use pictures, then I am not sure why you have, or at least did not object to my using them at first. And I am not sure why my interpretations, as opposed to yours, are somehow less or more accurate. I am not a tornado expert, and I am not sure what your qualifications are, but I would at least give some reason as to why my interpretations on what constitutes ground scouring are wrong, while yours are apparently more accurate.

I have noticed that you have removed several of my changes to the F5/EF5 list. I disagree with some of them, and I will explain why (and provide proof as to why). First, you removed the part about the foundation being blown away in Wheatland, Pennsylvania. That detail came directly from the Storm Data publication, which is now available online for years between 1959 and 2013. Just select the issue (month/year) you want to view and click next; you will get a link to the PDF file. Just select 1985-05 and then click next. The May 1985 publication is also available on the NWS Cleveland page. On p. 15, a caption just below the second row of photographs mentions "a Wheatland home that was blown loose from its foundation (left), and one where one person died and all that remains is the cellar and part of the foundation" (emphasis added). It seems self-evident that at least part of the foundation was blown away—otherwise, the NWS would not have mentioned this detail. Also, "part" of the foundation, rather than all of the foundation, being missing seems more realistic and is consistent with damage from more recent events like the Hackleburg tornado (cracked Mt. Hope foundation) on April 27, 2011. If part of the foundation were missing, then it was rather self-evidently swept away/broken off.
Re: the lot in Guin, aerial photography from the book April 3, 1974: The Alabama Tornadoes by C. F. Boone give a broad view of Guin, and the largest lot in Guin (and that appears to be mostly swept clean of debris) is the lot on which the industrial building stood. For instance, this image shows the site at top left. This photo, combined with the footage from the ABC/AlabamaWx video, rather clearly shows that the industrial building was flattened and had much of the surrounding area swept clean of visible debris. Another image offers an even better view of the phenomenon. If Grazulis were referring to a smaller lot, he probably would have not mentioned its being swept clean of all debris in the green book. After all, a smaller lot could be closer to trees and other objects, providing more debris with which to hammer/sweep away structures, while the industrial building was exposed, on large lot, and was not surrounded by large objects or vegetation. So I think all the evidence points to the industrial building site and the lot in Grazulis being one and the same.
As for Fergus Falls, perhaps you didn't read the NWS source very closely, for the second paragraph contains a sentence that very clearly states, "There were numerous reports of extreme damage, such as train tracks being pulled out of the ground." That is a clear citation of a damage example that occurred in the tornado and was representative of its extreme intensity generally. The way the sentence is worded makes clear that the "train tracks being pulled out of the ground" were one of the extreme phenomena reported or photographed in this tornado. I don't see why that detail should be removed, especially as it is a NWS source and, therefore, is presumably more reliable than some first-hand, exaggerated accounts of damage in a local newspaper.
Finally, double-check the Barneveld link and scroll down to a section entitled "Tornado Damage in Barneveld." Look at the fifth image and note that, on the right hand, there is a low shrub/small tree that rather clearly shows debarking. CapeVerdeWave ( talk) 15:45, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
Hello. Your move summary was truncated, so perhaps you could reiterate the rationale.
Based on a sample of our other tornado outbreak articles, the naming seems inconsistent. Some titles specify only the month and year, while others include date ranges or the prefixes "early-"/"mid-"/"late-". Still others combine the month and year with the location.
I have a vague recollection of a decision to include only the month and year unless additional disambiguation is needed (because more than one tornado outbreak occurred in that period). But I'm not 100% certain of that, and either way, it doesn't appear that any fully consistent naming scheme has been implemented. — David Levy 22:53, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
The reasoning behind it is that we could have for example an outbreak from the 5th to the 7th, and another from the the 20th to the 21st in the same month (June lets say). Obviously, we can't title both of those as "June 2014 tornado outbreak".
Also, the NWS pretty much always lists the dates in their outbreak summaries.

I can't believe that I was so stupid. I never bothered to read the part where it was talking about Thursday and Friday (instead of Tue. and Wed.). That just screws everything up; to think, all the work and no one noticed. I don't know who put those on here, but they must've been on a desperate survey hunt. Anyway, we are actually down to 355 because the Berrian Springs, MI tornado was also in the survey. I always wondered why they weren't on NCDC. I guess times like these are the reasons you can't always trust Wikipedia, but at least we try. Thanks again, United States Man ( talk) 14:37, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Hey, I was just wondering how you're updating these pages. Are you completely redoing the pages or just finding the storm events that exist for the tornadoes already on the page? I ask because there's a huge discrepancy between the stats on Wiki and the SPC stats. Wiki lists 113 tornadoes for April, SPC lists 128. Wiki lists 61 for May, SPC lists 130, and so on. I was going to completely redo these pages as I just did for the August-September page (which matches SPC's count perfectly now), but I don't know what to do since I didn't realize how much time you've spent on the other pages.

I've declined the speedy for Mid-May 2010 tornado outbreak. The problem is that mainspace articles are not eligible for WP:G13, which can only be used on draftspace articles.

I noticed that when you added the tornado tables at Draft:May 5–6, 2015 tornado outbreak, you also included ratings for the Central Oklahoma tornadoes. The problem is that the reference you used ( here) does not show any ratings. Maybe I'm missing something, but please explain? Thanks. Dustin (talk) 20:48, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Draft:May 5–7, 2015 tornado outbreak a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into May 5-7, 2015 tornado outbreak. This is known as a " cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you. (I added this template per the advice at the copy-paste move repair page) Dustin (talk) 20:01, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

No need to bite me. I just follow the pattern that has been in place for years. No one has ever made a fuss about "area" before in the years I've been working with the tables and it's been used to represent tornadoes passing close to (generally within a mile) of towns/cities. No one brought it up during the massive overhaul I did a few years back to bring the tables to proper standards with various parts of WP:MOS (yet people still ignore a few things...but that's a gripe for another day). The distance markers are determined from the town/city center, so outer parts of the population center can still be directly impacted while the center remains unscathed. Thus, "area" is used to indicate that places in the immediate vicinity of the town/city center were impacted. Cyclonebiskit ( talk) 20:55, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
There has never been a project-wide discussion on the usage of area, so claiming that it's established practice to not use it "since 2014" is inherently false. I've been with project since 2007, something like that wouldn't go unnoticed. Secondly, you're the only person to not use "area" within the tornado tables...which means it's not a consensus, it's your assumption/conjecture that it's to be removed. Feel free to start up a discussion on WP:SEVERE, but be sure to ping all major members of the project. However...other editors continue to use "area" and have already backed me up on reverting your senseless changes. I don't want to slap a warning template for disruptive editing on you since you've been editing for a little while...but I'll be forced to if you continue this silly game.

I don't feel that the deletion of this article was justified. It may have been in need of work, but there's no denying that the May 7-10 event was a significant outbreak - 41 confirmed tornadoes including four confirmed EF3 tornadoes and one confirmed EF4 tornado over a period of four days - meanwhile the May 15-17, 2013 tornado outbreak has an article despite being shorter in duration, having fewer confirmed tornadoes, and having fewer confirmed EF3+ tornadoes. It's true that the 2013 outbreak was deadlier than last week's outbreak, but then the June 5-6, 2010 tornado outbreak has an article despite only having caused one (non-tornadic) fatality. In a nutshell I don't see a reason why the May 15-17, 2013 and June 5-6, 2010 tornado outbreaks should have articles, but not the May 7-10, 2016 outbreak. Just something to think about. -- Anonymous Macaw ( talk) 14:02, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
No problem, I just assumed you were the one who deleted the article because you removed the main page template from the "tornadoes of 2016" article. It seems that it's been decided that the article stays anyway.
Also, just in case you haven't been watching the streams, there has been a major tornado in Dickinson County, Kansas this evening. Houses leveled, trees debarked, a good sized tree tossed through the air, a front end loader crumpled/collapsed, and reports of railroad tracks being ripped out of the ground. No reported fatalities yet, thankfully, but since there have been almost 80 tornadoes reported this week and the fact that there's now at least one that will probably be rated EF4+, this system may need an article soon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anonymous Macaw ( talk • contribs) 03:35, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

I haven’t been around much in a while so you probably don’t know me, but I have noticed you have been rather hostile on talk pages and in edit summaries. Please remember that everyone is doing their best and there isn’t any place for being a wise ass or trying to claim ownership of something. I know it wasn’t anything I did so I’m not trying to defend anything I’ve done, but there was another editor that has been working around here for over 8 years that I saw some hostility toward. I’m not wanting to seem hateful, just giving a little advice. United States Man ( talk) 21:33, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
The same thing happened to me too, I lost about 40 minutes of work because I didn't realize I was putting in the tornadoes on the wrong article. I probably should have checked that article for updates before blanket copy-pasting over your edits as well, sorry. The monthly article should probably be the main one and should be pasted to the outbreak articles to avoid confusion, but I guess the other editors don't want it that way.

This large, violent multiple-vortex tornado first touched down west-northwest of Scotia along Collie Road, producing EF1 tree damage. It quickly became strong as it moved northeast, crossed Old Orangeburg Road, and impacted a correctional institution, which was significantly damaged. The damage to medium-security prison was so severe that occupying inmates were relocated to Pennsylvania. [2]. The tornado than strengthened even more shortly after crossing over Steep Bottom Road and US 321 south of Estill, with EF2 to EF3 damage inflicted to residences along Sprayfield Road. The tornado than crossed over the Lena Expressway and destroyed another residence at EF3 intensity before mowing down a large swath of trees and destroying a cell tower. The tornado than crossed over SC 3 and US 601 to the northwest of the rural town of Nixville before impacting a group of homes to north of town on the Turner Expressway, heavily damaging or destroying them. The tornado than moved directly through the rural community of Speak Mills, crossing over SC 50 before reaching its peak intensity along Lento Road. Here, a two story home was leveled with some of its debris thrown into the yard. Several vehicles were thrown and mangled in the area as well. Damage to the residence was rated EF4. Another home across the street sustained EF3 damage as well. The tornado than began a weakening trend as it continued to move northeastward toward US 278. Damage was mainly limited to trees and outbuildings and the scope of it began to narrow and become less severe as the tornado crossed US 278 and the Coosawhatchie River and paralleled the Camp Branch. It than moved away from the tributary and entered the actual community of Camp Branch, producing only minor damage to trees and residences as it crossed Miles Road and SC 68. The tornado continued to inflict minor tree damage to the northeast of here before dissipating just after crossing SC 13 and just west of Horse Bay.
The tornado was on the ground for 27 minutes, reached a maximum width of about 0.75 mile, and traveled 24.03 miles. The tornado killed five people in the hardest hit areas just south of Estill and in Nixville while 60 others were injured. This was the first EF4 in the state since 1995 and the first in the South Carolina Lowcountry on record which led to the National Weather Service in Charleston, South Carolina calling this an "unusually long track and wide tornado."

I really should revert you back and force you to start discussion on the talk page. You made to initial change and that change was disagreed with and reverted. The burden is on you to gather support and consensus for a disputed change. I am increasingly tired of your "my way or the highway" mentality and excessive rewriting of everyone's work and gatekeeping of tornado tables. Hampton County is big is not a valid excuse; neither is "we've always done it this way." As TropicalAnalystwx13 said a few days ago, it is very hypocritical of you to accuse anyone of wanting something their way because you frequently rewrite summaries originally written by other users to the way you see fit and vehemently oppose anyone who disagrees. That isn't collaborative work in my opinion. Thank you, United States Man ( talk) 01:33, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

This intense, long-tracked tornado first touched down at 5:21 am EDT in Aiken County near the Savannah River Site southeast of Jackson. It moved northeast and quickly reached low-end EF3 intensity within the site as many trees were heavily damaged. The tornado then exited the site and moved into rural areas southwest of Williston, crossing US 278 and Jaywood Road while still at low-end EF3 intensity. A brick house was significantly damaged, a cinder-block workshop building and a vacant cinder-block store were completely destroyed, and a metal automotive service building had its roof and multiple exterior walls ripped off. Every tree in this area was snapped, with some being partially debarked, and a mobile home along Cherry Tree Road was shifted 6-10 feet of its foundation. The tornado then moved northeast along SC 781 approaching US 78, destroying a brick shed and ripping most of the roof off a house, leveling a manufactured home, and mowing down another large swath of trees. The tornado weakened slightly, but remained strong as it crossed US 78 while moving directly through White Pond at EF2 intensity. A business in the area had most of its roof ripped off as well as an exterior wall collapse. The tornado weakened, but continued to snap or uproot countless amounts of trees as it moved into Barnwell County at EF1 intensity before crossing Davis Bridge Road and Edisto Church Road. The tornado briefly weakened to EF0 intensity as it moved into Orangeburg County before restrengthening and moving directly into Springfield at EF1 strength. Many large trees in the town were uprooted, some of which landed on homes as well as a church. Structures along SC 4 and SC 39 in the downtown area were damaged as well. The tornado began to weaken for good as it crossed SC 3 northeast of town and turned east-northeast, but then it moved into the vicinity of Fire Tower Road and Starwood Drive, which had just been hit by the 0943 UTC Livingston EF3 tornado two to three minutes earlier. Extensive roof and front porch damage occured to several homes along Fire Tower Road as a result despite the fact that the tornado was only at EF1 strength at the time. The tornado then blew down several more trees along SC 389, including one that fell on a house, before dissipating east of the highway just outside the town of Neeses at 6:03 am EDT. Damage in that area was rated EF0.
The tornado was on the ground 42 minutes, tracked 38.28 miles, had a maximum width of 800 yards and was given a rating of low-end EF3. Despite blowing down thousands of trees and occuring in the middle of of night, there were no fatalities or injuries from this tornado. [4]

This strong, long-tracked tornado first touched down at 5:41 am EDT in Barnwell County south of Elko along Orchard Road and SC 37. It quickly strengthened as it moved northeast and struck Long Branch at EF2 strength, causing widespread tree damage. Tree damage continued west of Farells Mills before the tornado snapped seven wooden power poles while crossing US 78 and Turkey Creek in between Reynold and Elko. The tornado weakened to EF1 strength, snapping more trees in small community of Walker before reintensifying and striking Walker while still at EF2 strength. In this area, a brick home lost most of its roof, a pivot irrigation system was knocked over, and an anchored wood frame house and fifth wheel camper were destroyed with the destroyed home being tossed off its foundation. The tornado then crossed over SC 3 and Gardania Road, causing EF2-level tree damage. It then moved into Orangeburg County snapped multiple power poles as it crossed SC 332. The tornado briefly weakened to EF1 strength as it crossed SC 4. A house suffered a partial wall collapse here as well as roof damage and dozens of trees were snapped as the tornado turned north-northeast due to the influence of the 0921 UTC Savannah River Site EF3 tornado.
As the tornado crossed Fire Tower Road west of Neeses, it rapidly intensified and reached its peak intensity as it crossed SC 389 and impacted three anchored manufactured homes on Preserver Road as it moved through the west side of Livingston. All three were obliterated and swept away with their frames found hundred of yards away. Both fatalities occured at this location when their double-wide manufactured home was destroyed. Other manufactured homes were completely obliterated and swept away in this area and hundreds of trees were snapped, uprooted, and debarked. Damage here was rated low–end EF3. The tornado weakened slightly, but remained strong as it abruptly turned due–east and struck the north side of Livingston at EF2 strength. Numerous homes, barns, and outbuildings were heavily damaged or destroyed as the tornado crossed US 321 and Dragstrip Road. Power poles were snapped and dozens of trees were blown down as well. The tornado began to steadily weaken after that, crossing US 178 and passing near Wolfton into Calhoun County before lifting at 6:17 am EDT near Interstate 26, well west-southwest of St. Matthews.
The tornado was on the ground for 34 minutes, tracked 36.9 miles, reached a peak width of 770 yards, and was rated low-end EF3. As with the other EF3+ tornadoes in South Carolina, thousands of trees were snapped or blown down. Along with the two fatalities, at least seven people were injured. This tornado was also notable in the fact that it absorbed the circulations of the 0921 and 0933 UTC EF3 tornadoes near Elko and Livingston respectfully. [5]

This high-end EF2 tornado first touched down at 4:53 pm CDT in Marshall County south-southwest of Oakland along SH-99C and west of Breezy Hill Road. The tornado immediately became strong upon touching down, inflicting EF2 damage to multiple steel, electrical poles. The tornado then moved east-northeast, damaging multiple barns, trees, and warehouses at EF0–EF1 strength. It then entered the southwest side of Madill, producing EF2 damage to multiple barns and outbuildings as well as wooden and steel power poles as it crossed the concurrent US 377 and SH-99 and into more populated areas of Madill. EF0–EF1–level tree damage occured as the tornado crossed Brush Creek Lane before the Holy Cross Catholic Church and a home along South Fifth Avenue were heavily damaged at EF2 strength. More trees were damaged at EF2 strength north of Smiley Road as the tornado tracked due-east toward US 70 south of Madill. Just before crossing the highway, it ripped a satellite dish off a cell tower and damaged multiple homes along Oak Hollow Road, as well as vehicles and power lines. Damage here was rated EF0–EF1. It then crossed the US 70, kicking up a huge amount of dust before striking the Oklahoma Steel & Wire manufacturing facility, which was severely damaged. The tornado then turned east-southeast and struck the southern portion of the neighboring Mid American Steel & Wire manufacturing facility, which was also heavily damaged. Wooden power poles were damaged as well. Damage throughout the facilities was rated EF1–EF2. The tornado then crossed Smiley Road southeast of Madill, and struck a small community near its intersection Whiskey Creek Road. Homes were damaged, a mobile home was obliterated, and the M & R Wire Works was damaged in this area with damage here rated EF0–EF2 strength. The tornado then quickly weakened and roped out shortly after that at 5:05 pm CDT.
The tornado was on the ground for 12 minutes, tracked 4.25 miles, and was rated high-end EF2. Two people were killed and an unknown number of people were injured. This tornado was also very photogenic and a rainbow was seen near it by multiple storm chasers as it dissipated. [6] [7] [8]

This large, intense wedge tornado first touched down at 5:35 pm CDT in Polk County along the north shore of Lake Livingston northwest of Onalaska south of FM 356. It then moved along the north shore of the lake, blowing down several trees while throwing several others into the lake. The tornado then rapidly strengthened as it briefly moved over the north part of the lake before causing major damage in Onalaska. Reaching low-end EF3 intensity, it first struck the Paradise Acres community on a small peninsula northwest of town. Multiple homes and manufactured homes were heavily damaged or destroyed in this area and trees were damaged as well. It then moved back over Lake Livingston before moving ashore on the north side of Onalaska. It was slightly weaker here, but still was able to produce widespread damage as more homes in neighborhoods south of FM 356 were damaged or destroyed at EF2 intensity. Dozens of trees were snapped or uprooted as the tornado crossed FM 356 before it entered another neighborhood on the northeast side of town. Several well-built frame homes had their roofs torn off and exterior walls collapsed in neighborhoods along and east of FM 3459 while other manufactured homes were completely destroyed. All three deaths and 33 injuries from the tornado occured in Onalaska. The tornado weakened as it moved east-northeast out of Onalaska and crossed over the extreme northeastern part of Lake Livingston. Trees and homes along the shore were damaged at EF1 strength before the tornado moved into rural areas of Polk County and crossing FM 3152. Mostly snapping or uprooting countless hardwood and softwood trees, although one house along FM 350 suffered roof damage. The tornado then reached its peak width of .5 miles wide as it tore through the north side of Seven Oaks while restrengthening to EF2 intensity. Two mobile homes were completely destroyed as the tornado crossed the concurrent US 59 and Future Interstate 69 and hardwood trees in the area were snapped, denuded, and partially debarked. The tornado then weakened back to EF1 strength as it continued to the east-northeast, damaging more trees, including one large tree that fell on a mobile home, destroying it while barely missing a man sitting at his computer. The tornado than dissapated near FM 942 southwest of Barnes at 6:15 pm CDT.
The tornado was on the ground for 40 minutes, tracked 32.31 miles, had a peak width of 1100 yards, and was rated low-end EF3. A total of 291 homes were affected by the tornado in Onalaska alone, 46 of which were destroyed. All three fatalities and 33 injures were also in Onalaska. This was the first of multiple strong tornadoes from this long–tracked supercell. [9] [8]

1st part: Thanks for feedback! I understand what you mean. Onalaska needed a section, while Madill was a rather unique tornado and killed 2 people. I had to limit myself with how many sections I did though. LOL! 2nd part: Terribly sorry. I have a habit of becoming overly obsessed with things and it showed up here. I had put it on the talk page that I was doing this and when no one answered, I just did it. Please make the tornado summaries line up though because some of was incorrect or has changed.

ChessEric ( talk) 04:02, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
I have a HUGE problem. See if you can follow it:
The outbreak listed above seemed to have a problem. It listed 55 tornadoes. The SPC and Tornado History Project says there were 73. 18 tornadoes missing from one outbreak! So what do I decide to do and am still doing now? Add the missing tornadoes! However, there was something weird about this data. Every tornado only goes through one county and every tornado seems to break up right at the county line. That's when I realized that the data from the SPC was incorrectly entered in! However, I don't know if there is anything I can do. I just wanted to let you know because if you see the outbreak yourself and wonder about why the heck it looks like that, you already know why. Please make sure you consult the SPC or something before you change it because I'm working REALLY hard on it! ChessEric ( talk) 01:34, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

Can you rewrite the Tornado outbreak of February 23–24, 2016#Pensacola, Florida section? The summary for the tornado was just copy-pasted from the now merged 2016 Pensacola Tornado article and I think it would look better with a summary from you rather than from me (especially since that summary was written 2.5 years ago).

I know you may have been in a hurry, but it is better to avoid using the NWS PNS pages such as this, as refs (or archive them if you do) since they are not stable sources.

Hello TornadoInformation12. I took a moment to consider my actions and I wanted to say I am sorry that I did not read the synopsis section. I saw the event was still ongoing and assumed it would have been ok to add the tornado to the article. I am sorry for that. I also thought about your comment about reverting without constructive criticism. I hope I can make up for today and my past to ensure it never comes to that. Finally, I am sorry for asking for your accusations to be recanted. They were fully justified. I just recently got forgiveness from my actions back in late 2020-early 2021, so hopefully, I can work toward forgiveness for my recent actions in the WikiProject.

Hey TornadoInformation12! A few months ago, I started the Draft:List of F4 and EF4 tornadoes, which has turned into a huge project. Myself and 9 other editors have worked on it and we probably are about 15% of the way done. I wanted to ask if you would want to help work on the draft? I have asked a few other others who work with weather-related articles, and I posted a message to WP:Weather's talk page back when the draft first started, but that was since archived, so now I have just been asking editors to see if they would want/could help with the draft. It's a huge project, but one that will be extremely beneficial in the end. Elijahandskip ( talk) 01:33, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
I think I know what might have happened. It looks like the list got mostly reverted to an earlier version, sometime before the NCDC sources were added. That can happen if you edit an earlier version of a page. Were you retrieving a source that was in a previous version? Also, you had me worried for a minute the first time.

Hey, TornadoInformation12! So you might have seen this discussion before, but there the Possible F5/EF5/T10+ tornadoes officially rated F4/EF4/T9 or lower list was having each tornado discussed. Recently (since yesterday), a few specific tornadoes have been debated like the 2013 El Reno tornado and 2021 Western Kentucky tornado for inclusion on the list. I wanted to ask if you would be willing to read some of the comments presented and give an opinion. Here is a link for the 2021 WK tornado's discussion and here is a link for the 2013 El Reno tornado's discussion. Myself, ChessEric, and TornadoLGS had discussions for basically all of the tornadoes on the long list, so if you wish to spend a little extra time, feel free to comment on any of the other tornadoes in the discussion list...though...it is 55 tornadoes in the discussion.

Hello, I’m really sorry about the confusion I caused yesterday.

Your hostile behavior is reaching a point of being unacceptable, with consistent WP:TPNO violations. You can have strong opinions and express them, but you cannot do so at the expense of others. Disparaging other users ( WP:NPA) for not understanding how to use DAT and adamantly refuting concerns brought up by other editors without giving them a chance to explain is not how this works. You also don't get to decide whose opinion does and doesn't matter. I value the immense amount of work you've done over the years but this attitude cannot continue. If you continue at this rate you run the risk of losing editing privileges. You did not even give me a chance to comment before reverting and you've done the same for another long-time editor (now predominantly a lurker) [1] . This was followed by aggressive comments waiting for someone to respond, which I was in the process of. Wikipedia is not a chat room and responses should not be expected immediately, things happen in the real world that can delay a reply. You're really not helping yourself either by canvassing other editors to support your opinion ( WP:CANVAS) ~ Cyclonebiskit ( chat) 05:48, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello there! I am sending this alert to all members of the WikiProject Weather and editors who have recently edited in the realm of tornadoes.
There is a large and important discussion ongoing, with the goal to completely overhaul and improve the List of F5 and EF5 tornadoes. The previous improvement attempt back in 2022/2023 gained almost no participation. This alert is being sent out so these discussions hopefully gain a reasonably-sized participation, so the F5/EF5 tornado article, one of the most viewed weather-related articles on Wikipedia, can be improved for all readers!

I know why you think it deserves a section, but we can't keep adding all of those tornadoes into the main page. The path was only 47 miles (76 km), which is one reason it shouldn't be included (the other reasons being that it wasn't EF5 and it didn't hit a big town). The only reason I added Cordova and Uniontown was because they had path lengths of over 100 miles (160 km). Both the Higdon and Fackler tornadoes could have sections, but I would be against it due to the fact that the page is getting too long. United States Man ( talk) 23:34, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
First of all, you have once again failed WP:ASG and WP:NPA with that hateful message. But, I am probably guilty of ASG myself.

Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to List of F5 and EF5 tornadoes, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. No more of this. Although Grazulis is reliable, if there are other sources (which there are) it would be best to go by them (the NCDC pdf) since the Grazulis info isn't entirely available online. Anymore reverting and I will start a discussion here. One of the main WP guidelines is the statement: If you do not want your work to be edited, used, and redistributed by others, then do not submit it here. Good day.

I am glad that you asked to verify my sources. While I do not own the books cited and have not read all the information found in those sources, I have heard from credible people (on other Web sites) who have, and while their information seemed to corroborate most of the accounts from J. B. Elliott, they also seemed to indicate that the accounts were, in whole or in part, independently available from the said books. I will explain further. First: the information on the Xenia tornado's removal of sidewalk pavers is actually taken from someone who knew a relative in his family who was present in the aftermath at Xenia and recalled seeing the damage described. While I am not sure that the information is stated in the Xenia sources that I added, those sources include numerous photos of the damage, and I recall having seen a photocopy of one of the photos that showed the damage to the sidewalks and the ground scouring. The data on the Guin tornado's forward movement was actually stated on the back of the book by C. F. Boone, where a radar operator at Centreville recalled seeing the Guin supercell moving at 113 miles per hour (182 km/h). Since J. B. Elliott mentioned this information along with the other stuff in his accounts, he was probably alluding to data that he culled from a body of sources. Since he once recommended, to my recollection, the sources that I listed for further information on the Tanner and Guin tornadoes, I am assuming that his claims came from the sources that I listed. Also, I am absolutely certain that I have seen Guin photocopies from the Jordan (1987) book showing ground scouring from the air--this was an actual aerial photograph of Guin, not the satellite photo that appears in the green book. In summation, while I am not absolutely, 100% certain that my sources contain all the claims cited herein, I am quite confident that the data came from those sources. I have only seen some photocopies from these sources that have served as support for this hunch. I would recommend trying to locate the sources and reading them in whole. Again, as I am not 100% confident, feel free to remove the data if need be. CapeVerdeWave ( talk) 22:01, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

The most appropriate formatting for tornado tables against WP:MOS was already determined earlier this year. I went through an ugly FLC with the List of tornadoes in the 1999 Oklahoma tornado outbreak just for this purpose. There are no places where bold is necessary across the table. Please use this as an example for all future tables as well. There's an enormous amount of work that needs to be done to fix up older ones as well in order to comply with WP:MOS, but I doubt that will happen anytime soon...

I am curious as to why you removed my picture-based references to ground scouring in Early-May 1965 tornado outbreak sequence. For the reference to ground scouring on the April 1977 Birmingham tornado, I referred to a picture that showed, or appeared to show, a broad area of ground scouring, and when I gave the photographic source to you, you never said I could not use it. Also, several of the tornadoes on the F5 list, including the Udall tornado (for which the ground scouring detail was your addition, not mine, if I recall correctly), mention ground scouring that is not explicitly stated in sources but is visible in photographs. Please try to be a little consistent, or explain why I am wrong here. If I am not supposed to use pictures, then I am not sure why you have, or at least did not object to my using them at first. And I am not sure why my interpretations, as opposed to yours, are somehow less or more accurate. I am not a tornado expert, and I am not sure what your qualifications are, but I would at least give some reason as to why my interpretations on what constitutes ground scouring are wrong, while yours are apparently more accurate.

I have noticed that you have removed several of my changes to the F5/EF5 list. I disagree with some of them, and I will explain why (and provide proof as to why). First, you removed the part about the foundation being blown away in Wheatland, Pennsylvania. That detail came directly from the Storm Data publication, which is now available online for years between 1959 and 2013. Just select the issue (month/year) you want to view and click next; you will get a link to the PDF file. Just select 1985-05 and then click next. The May 1985 publication is also available on the NWS Cleveland page. On p. 15, a caption just below the second row of photographs mentions "a Wheatland home that was blown loose from its foundation (left), and one where one person died and all that remains is the cellar and part of the foundation" (emphasis added). It seems self-evident that at least part of the foundation was blown away—otherwise, the NWS would not have mentioned this detail. Also, "part" of the foundation, rather than all of the foundation, being missing seems more realistic and is consistent with damage from more recent events like the Hackleburg tornado (cracked Mt. Hope foundation) on April 27, 2011. If part of the foundation were missing, then it was rather self-evidently swept away/broken off.
Re: the lot in Guin, aerial photography from the book April 3, 1974: The Alabama Tornadoes by C. F. Boone give a broad view of Guin, and the largest lot in Guin (and that appears to be mostly swept clean of debris) is the lot on which the industrial building stood. For instance, this image shows the site at top left. This photo, combined with the footage from the ABC/AlabamaWx video, rather clearly shows that the industrial building was flattened and had much of the surrounding area swept clean of visible debris. Another image offers an even better view of the phenomenon. If Grazulis were referring to a smaller lot, he probably would have not mentioned its being swept clean of all debris in the green book. After all, a smaller lot could be closer to trees and other objects, providing more debris with which to hammer/sweep away structures, while the industrial building was exposed, on large lot, and was not surrounded by large objects or vegetation. So I think all the evidence points to the industrial building site and the lot in Grazulis being one and the same.
As for Fergus Falls, perhaps you didn't read the NWS source very closely, for the second paragraph contains a sentence that very clearly states, "There were numerous reports of extreme damage, such as train tracks being pulled out of the ground." That is a clear citation of a damage example that occurred in the tornado and was representative of its extreme intensity generally. The way the sentence is worded makes clear that the "train tracks being pulled out of the ground" were one of the extreme phenomena reported or photographed in this tornado. I don't see why that detail should be removed, especially as it is a NWS source and, therefore, is presumably more reliable than some first-hand, exaggerated accounts of damage in a local newspaper.
Finally, double-check the Barneveld link and scroll down to a section entitled "Tornado Damage in Barneveld." Look at the fifth image and note that, on the right hand, there is a low shrub/small tree that rather clearly shows debarking. CapeVerdeWave ( talk) 15:45, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
Hello. Your move summary was truncated, so perhaps you could reiterate the rationale.
Based on a sample of our other tornado outbreak articles, the naming seems inconsistent. Some titles specify only the month and year, while others include date ranges or the prefixes "early-"/"mid-"/"late-". Still others combine the month and year with the location.
I have a vague recollection of a decision to include only the month and year unless additional disambiguation is needed (because more than one tornado outbreak occurred in that period). But I'm not 100% certain of that, and either way, it doesn't appear that any fully consistent naming scheme has been implemented. — David Levy 22:53, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
The reasoning behind it is that we could have for example an outbreak from the 5th to the 7th, and another from the the 20th to the 21st in the same month (June lets say). Obviously, we can't title both of those as "June 2014 tornado outbreak".
Also, the NWS pretty much always lists the dates in their outbreak summaries.

I can't believe that I was so stupid. I never bothered to read the part where it was talking about Thursday and Friday (instead of Tue. and Wed.). That just screws everything up; to think, all the work and no one noticed. I don't know who put those on here, but they must've been on a desperate survey hunt. Anyway, we are actually down to 355 because the Berrian Springs, MI tornado was also in the survey. I always wondered why they weren't on NCDC.

Hey, I was just wondering how you're updating these pages. Are you completely redoing the pages or just finding the storm events that exist for the tornadoes already on the page? I ask because there's a huge discrepancy between the stats on Wiki and the SPC stats. Wiki lists 113 tornadoes for April, SPC lists 128. Wiki lists 61 for May, SPC lists 130, and so on. I was going to completely redo these pages as I just did for the August-September page (which matches SPC's count perfectly now), but I don't know what to do since I didn't realize how much time you've spent on the other pages.

This is known as a " cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you. (I added this template per the advice at the copy-paste move repair page) Dustin (talk) 20:01, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

No need to bite me. I just follow the pattern that has been in place for years. No one has ever made a fuss about "area" before in the years I've been working with the tables and it's been used to represent tornadoes passing close to (generally within a mile) of towns/cities. No one brought it up during the massive overhaul I did a few years back to bring the tables to proper standards with various parts of WP:MOS (yet people still ignore a few things...but that's a gripe for another day). The distance markers are determined from the town/city center, so outer parts of the population center can still be directly impacted while the center remains unscathed. Thus, "area" is used to indicate that places in the immediate vicinity of the town/city center were impacted. Cyclonebiskit ( talk) 20:55, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
There has never been a project-wide discussion on the usage of area, so claiming that it's established practice to not use it "since 2014" is inherently false. I've been with project since 2007, something like that wouldn't go unnoticed. Secondly, you're the only person to not use "area" within the tornado tables...which means it's not a consensus, it's your assumption/conjecture that it's to be removed. Feel free to start up a discussion on WP:SEVERE, but be sure to ping all major members of the project. However...other editors continue to use "area" and have already backed me up on reverting your senseless changes. I don't want to slap a warning template for disruptive editing on you since you've been editing for a little while...but I'll be forced to if you continue this silly game.

I don't feel that the deletion of this article was justified. It may have been in need of work, but there's no denying that the May 7-10 event was a significant outbreak - 41 confirmed tornadoes including four confirmed EF3 tornadoes and one confirmed EF4 tornado over a period of four days - meanwhile the May 15-17, 2013 tornado outbreak has an article despite being shorter in duration, having fewer confirmed tornadoes, and having fewer confirmed EF3+ tornadoes. It's true that the 2013 outbreak was deadlier than last week's outbreak, but then the June 5-6, 2010 tornado outbreak has an article despite only having caused one (non-tornadic) fatality. In a nutshell I don't see a reason why the May 15-17, 2013 and June 5-6, 2010 tornado outbreaks should have articles, but not the May 7-10, 2016 outbreak. Just something to think about. -- Anonymous Macaw ( talk) 14:02, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
No problem, I just assumed you were the one who deleted the article because you removed the main page template from the "tornadoes of 2016" article. It seems that it's been decided that the article stays anyway.
Also, just in case you haven't been watching the streams, there has been a major tornado in Dickinson County, Kansas this evening. Houses leveled, trees debarked, a good sized tree tossed through the air, a front end loader crumpled/collapsed, and reports of railroad tracks being ripped out of the ground. No reported fatalities yet, thankfully, but since there have been almost 80 tornadoes reported this week and the fact that there's now at least one that will probably be rated EF4+, this system may need an article soon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anonymous Macaw ( talk • contribs) 03:35, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

I haven’t been around much in a while so you probably don’t know me, but I have noticed you have been rather hostile on talk pages and in edit summaries. Please remember that everyone is doing their best and there isn’t any place for being a wise ass or trying to claim ownership of something. I know it wasn’t anything I did so I’m not trying to defend anything I’ve done, but there was another editor that has been working around here for over 8 years that I saw some hostility toward. I’m not wanting to seem hateful, just giving a little advice. United States Man ( talk) 21:33, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
The same thing happened to me too, I lost about 40 minutes of work because I didn't realize I was putting in the tornadoes on the wrong article. I probably should have checked that article for updates before blanket copy-pasting over your edits as well, sorry. The monthly article should probably be the main one and should be pasted to the outbreak articles to avoid confusion, but I guess the other editors don't want it that way.

This large, violent multiple-vortex tornado first touched down west-northwest of Scotia along Collie Road, producing EF1 tree damage. It quickly became strong as it moved northeast, crossed Old Orangeburg Road, and impacted a correctional institution, which was significantly damaged. The damage to medium-security prison was so severe that occupying inmates were relocated to Pennsylvania. [2]. The tornado than strengthened even more shortly after crossing over Steep Bottom Road and US 321 south of Estill, with EF2 to EF3 damage inflicted to residences along Sprayfield Road. The tornado than crossed over the Lena Expressway and destroyed another residence at EF3 intensity before mowing down a large swath of trees and destroying a cell tower. The tornado than crossed over SC 3 and US 601 to the northwest of the rural town of Nixville before impacting a group of homes to north of town on the Turner Expressway, heavily damaging or destroying them. The tornado than moved directly through the rural community of Speak Mills, crossing over SC 50 before reaching its peak intensity along Lento Road. Here, a two story home was leveled with some of its debris thrown into the yard. Several vehicles were thrown and mangled in the area as well. Damage to the residence was rated EF4. Another home across the street sustained EF3 damage as well. The tornado than began a weakening trend as it continued to move northeastward toward US 278. Damage was mainly limited to trees and outbuildings and the scope of it began to narrow and become less severe as the tornado crossed US 278 and the Coosawhatchie River and paralleled the Camp Branch. It than moved away from the tributary and entered the actual community of Camp Branch, producing only minor damage to trees and residences as it crossed Miles Road and SC 68. The tornado continued to inflict minor tree damage to the northeast of here before dissipating just after crossing SC 13 and just west of Horse Bay.
The tornado was on the ground for 27 minutes, reached a maximum width of about 0.75 mile, and traveled 24.03 miles. The tornado killed five people in the hardest hit areas just south of Estill and in Nixville while 60 others were injured. This was the first EF4 in the state since 1995 and the first in the South Carolina Lowcountry on record which led to the National Weather Service in Charleston, South Carolina calling this an "unusually long track and wide tornado."

I really should revert you back and force you to start discussion on the talk page. You made to initial change and that change was disagreed with and reverted. The burden is on you to gather support and consensus for a disputed change. I am increasingly tired of your "my way or the highway" mentality and excessive rewriting of everyone's work and gatekeeping of tornado tables. Hampton County is big is not a valid excuse; neither is "we've always done it this way." As TropicalAnalystwx13 said a few days ago, it is very hypocritical of you to accuse anyone of wanting something their way because you frequently rewrite summaries originally written by other users to the way you see fit and vehemently oppose anyone who disagrees. That isn't collaborative work in my opinion. Thank you, United States Man ( talk) 01:33, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

This intense, long-tracked tornado first touched down at 5:21 am EDT in Aiken County near the Savannah River Site southeast of Jackson. It moved northeast and quickly reached low-end EF3 intensity within the site as many trees were heavily damaged. The tornado then exited the site and moved into rural areas southwest of Williston, crossing US 278 and Jaywood Road while still at low-end EF3 intensity. A brick house was significantly damaged, a cinder-block workshop building and a vacant cinder-block store were completely destroyed, and a metal automotive service building had its roof and multiple exterior walls ripped off. Every tree in this area was snapped, with some being partially debarked, and a mobile home along Cherry Tree Road was shifted 6-10 feet of its foundation. The tornado then moved northeast along SC 781 approaching US 78, destroying a brick shed and ripping most of the roof off a house, leveling a manufactured home, and mowing down another large swath of trees. The tornado weakened slightly, but remained strong as it crossed US 78 while moving directly through White Pond at EF2 intensity. A business in the area had most of its roof ripped off as well as an exterior wall collapse. The tornado weakened, but continued to snap or uproot countless amounts of trees as it moved into Barnwell County at EF1 intensity before crossing Davis Bridge Road and Edisto Church Road. The tornado briefly weakened to EF0 intensity as it moved into Orangeburg County before restrengthening and moving directly into Springfield at EF1 strength. Many large trees in the town were uprooted, some of which landed on homes as well as a church. Structures along SC 4 and SC 39 in the downtown area were damaged as well. The tornado began to weaken for good as it crossed SC 3 northeast of town and turned east-northeast, but then it moved into the vicinity of Fire Tower Road and Starwood Drive, which had just been hit by the 0943 UTC Livingston EF3 tornado two to three minutes earlier. Extensive roof and front porch damage occured to several homes along Fire Tower Road as a result despite the fact that the tornado was only at EF1 strength at the time. The tornado then blew down several more trees along SC 389, including one that fell on a house, before dissipating east of the highway just outside the town of Neeses at 6:03 am EDT. Damage in that area was rated EF0.
The tornado was on the ground 42 minutes, tracked 38.28 miles, had a maximum width of 800 yards and was given a rating of low-end EF3. Despite blowing down thousands of trees and occuring in the middle of of night, there were no fatalities or injuries from this tornado. [4]

This strong, long-tracked tornado first touched down at 5:41 am EDT in Barnwell County south of Elko along Orchard Road and SC 37. It quickly strengthened as it moved northeast and struck Long Branch at EF2 strength, causing widespread tree damage. Tree damage continued west of Farells Mills before the tornado snapped seven wooden power poles while crossing US 78 and Turkey Creek in between Reynold and Elko. The tornado weakened to EF1 strength, snapping more trees in small community of Walker before reintensifying and striking Walker while still at EF2 strength. In this area, a brick home lost most of its roof, a pivot irrigation system was knocked over, and an anchored wood frame house and fifth wheel camper were destroyed with the destroyed home being tossed off its foundation. The tornado then crossed over SC 3 and Gardania Road, causing EF2-level tree damage. It then moved into Orangeburg County snapped multiple power poles as it crossed SC 332. The tornado briefly weakened to EF1 strength as it crossed SC 4. A house suffered a partial wall collapse here as well as roof damage and dozens of trees were snapped as the tornado turned north-northeast due to the influence of the 0921 UTC Savannah River Site EF3 tornado.
As the tornado crossed Fire Tower Road west of Neeses, it rapidly intensified and reached its peak intensity as it crossed SC 389 and impacted three anchored manufactured homes on Preserver Road as it moved through the west side of Livingston. All three were obliterated and swept away with their frames found hundred of yards away. Both fatalities occured at this location when their double-wide manufactured home was destroyed. Other manufactured homes were completely obliterated and swept away in this area and hundreds of trees were snapped, uprooted, and debarked. Damage here was rated low–end EF3. The tornado weakened slightly, but remained strong as it abruptly turned due–east and struck the north side of Livingston at EF2 strength. Numerous homes, barns, and outbuildings were heavily damaged or destroyed as the tornado crossed US 321 and Dragstrip Road. Power poles were snapped and dozens of trees were blown down as well. The tornado began to steadily weaken after that, crossing US 178 and passing near Wolfton into Calhoun County before lifting at 6:17 am EDT near Interstate 26, well west-southwest of St. Matthews.
The tornado was on the ground for 34 minutes, tracked 36.9 miles, reached a peak width of 770 yards, and was rated low-end EF3. As with the other EF3+ tornadoes in South Carolina, thousands of trees were snapped or blown down. Along with the two fatalities, at least seven people were injured. This tornado was also notable in the fact that it absorbed the circulations of the 0921 and 0933 UTC EF3 tornadoes near Elko and Livingston respectfully. [5]

This high-end EF2 tornado first touched down at 4:53 pm CDT in Marshall County south-southwest of Oakland along SH-99C and west of Breezy Hill Road. The tornado immediately became strong upon touching down, inflicting EF2 damage to multiple steel, electrical poles. The tornado then moved east-northeast, damaging multiple barns, trees, and warehouses at EF0–EF1 strength. It then entered the southwest side of Madill, producing EF2 damage to multiple barns and outbuildings as well as wooden and steel power poles as it crossed the concurrent US 377 and SH-99 and into more populated areas of Madill. EF0–EF1–level tree damage occured as the tornado crossed Brush Creek Lane before the Holy Cross Catholic Church and a home along South Fifth Avenue were heavily damaged at EF2 strength. More trees were damaged at EF2 strength north of Smiley Road as the tornado tracked due-east toward US 70 south of Madill. Just before crossing the highway, it ripped a satellite dish off a cell tower and damaged multiple homes along Oak Hollow Road, as well as vehicles and power lines. Damage here was rated EF0–EF1. It then crossed the US 70, kicking up a huge amount of dust before striking the Oklahoma Steel & Wire manufacturing facility, which was severely damaged. The tornado then turned east-southeast and struck the southern portion of the neighboring Mid American Steel & Wire manufacturing facility, which was also heavily damaged. Wooden power poles were damaged as well. Damage throughout the facilities was rated EF1–EF2. The tornado then crossed Smiley Road southeast of Madill, and struck a small community near its intersection Whiskey Creek Road. Homes were damaged, a mobile home was obliterated, and the M & R Wire Works was damaged in this area with damage here rated EF0–EF2 strength. The tornado then quickly weakened and roped out shortly after that at 5:05 pm CDT.
The tornado was on the ground for 12 minutes, tracked 4.25 miles, and was rated high-end EF2. Two people were killed and an unknown number of people were injured. This tornado was also very photogenic and a rainbow was seen near it by multiple storm chasers as it dissipated. [6] [7] [8]

This large, intense wedge tornado first touched down at 5:35 pm CDT in Polk County along the north shore of Lake Livingston northwest of Onalaska south of FM 356. It then moved along the north shore of the lake, blowing down several trees while throwing several others into the lake. The tornado then rapidly strengthened as it briefly moved over the north part of the lake before causing major damage in Onalaska. Reaching low-end EF3 intensity, it first struck the Paradise Acres community on a small peninsula northwest of town. Multiple homes and manufactured homes were heavily damaged or destroyed in this area and trees were damaged as well. It then moved back over Lake Livingston before moving ashore on the north side of Onalaska. It was slightly weaker here, but still was able to produce widespread damage as more homes in neighborhoods south of FM 356 were damaged or destroyed at EF2 intensity. Dozens of trees were snapped or uprooted as the tornado crossed FM 356 before it entered another neighborhood on the northeast side of town. Several well-built frame homes had their roofs torn off and exterior walls collapsed in neighborhoods along and east of FM 3459 while other manufactured homes were completely destroyed. All three deaths and 33 injuries from the tornado occured in Onalaska. The tornado weakened as it moved east-northeast out of Onalaska and crossed over the extreme northeastern part of Lake Livingston. Trees and homes along the shore were damaged at EF1 strength before the tornado moved into rural areas of Polk County and crossing FM 3152. Mostly snapping or uprooting countless hardwood and softwood trees, although one house along FM 350 suffered roof damage. The tornado then reached its peak width of .5 miles wide as it tore through the north side of Seven Oaks while restrengthening to EF2 intensity. Two mobile homes were completely destroyed as the tornado crossed the concurrent US 59 and Future Interstate 69 and hardwood trees in the area were snapped, denuded, and partially debarked. The tornado then weakened back to EF1 strength as it continued to the east-northeast, damaging more trees, including one large tree that fell on a mobile home, destroying it while barely missing a man sitting at his computer. The tornado than dissapated near FM 942 southwest of Barnes at 6:15 pm CDT.
The tornado was on the ground for 40 minutes, tracked 32.31 miles, had a peak width of 1100 yards, and was rated low-end EF3. A total of 291 homes were affected by the tornado in Onalaska alone, 46 of which were destroyed. All three fatalities and 33 injures were also in Onalaska. This was the first of multiple strong tornadoes from this long–tracked supercell. [9] [8]

1st part: Thanks for feedback! I understand what you mean. Onalaska needed a section, while Madill was a rather unique tornado and killed 2 people. I had to limit myself with how many sections I did though. LOL! 2nd part: Terribly sorry. I have a habit of becoming overly obsessed with things and it showed up here. I had put it on the talk page that I was doing this and when no one answered, I just did it. Please make the tornado summaries line up though because some of was incorrect or has changed.

May 18 produced an EF0 tornado in Ohio that was associated with the tornadoes from the day before. Should that tornado be included in the section?
Also, I have been working on fixing the main pages for previous years. I've done massive edits for 1960-1961 & 1964-2005. Can you check them please? ChessEric ( talk) 01:39, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Since I last messaged you, I have not only continued to fix the older tornado pages, but have also made pages for the 1950s. Due to the sheer volume of tornado outbreaks from that year, Tornadoes of 1953 is the first page to be near completion. I even made another outbreak page for it so feel free to check it out! ChessEric ( talk) 04:02, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
I have a HUGE problem. See if you can follow it:
The outbreak listed above seemed to have a problem. It listed 55 tornadoes. The SPC and Tornado History Project says there were 73. 18 tornadoes missing from one outbreak! So what do I decide to do and am still doing now? Add the missing tornadoes! However, there was something weird about this data. Every tornado only goes through one county and every tornado seems to break up right at the county line. That's when I realized that the data from the SPC was incorrectly entered in! However, I don't know if there is anything I can do. I just wanted to let you know because if you see the outbreak yourself and wonder about why the heck it looks like that, you already know why. Please make sure you consult the SPC or something before you change it because I'm working REALLY hard on it! ChessEric ( talk) 01:34, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

Can you rewrite the Tornado outbreak of February 23–24, 2016#Pensacola, Florida section? The summary for the tornado was just copy-pasted from the now merged 2016 Pensacola Tornado article and I think it would look better with a summary from you rather than from me (especially since that summary was written 2.5 years ago).

I know you may have been in a hurry, but it is better to avoid using the NWS PNS pages such as this, as refs (or archive them if you do) since they are not stable sources.

Hello TornadoInformation12. I took a moment to consider my actions and I wanted to say I am sorry that I did not read the synopsis section. I saw the event was still ongoing and assumed it would have been ok to add the tornado to the article. I am sorry for that. I also thought about your comment about reverting without constructive criticism. I hope I can make up for today and my past to ensure it never comes to that. Finally, I am sorry for asking for your accusations to be recanted. They were fully justified. I just recently got forgiveness from my actions back in late 2020-early 2021, so hopefully, I can work toward forgiveness for my recent actions in the WikiProject.

Hey TornadoInformation12! A few months ago, I started the Draft:List of F4 and EF4 tornadoes, which has turned into a huge project. Myself and 9 other editors have worked on it and we probably are about 15% of the way done. I wanted to ask if you would want to help work on the draft? I have asked a few other others who work with weather-related articles, and I posted a message to WP:Weather's talk page back when the draft first started, but that was since archived, so now I have just been asking editors to see if they would want/could help with the draft. It's a huge project, but one that will be extremely beneficial in the end. Elijahandskip ( talk) 01:33, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
I think I know what might have happened. It looks like the list got mostly reverted to an earlier version, sometime before the NCDC sources were added. That can happen if you edit an earlier version of a page. Were you retrieving a source that was in a previous version? Also, you had me worried for a minute the first time. I'd thought your account had been hacked or something. TornadoLGS ( talk) 02:25, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

Hey, TornadoInformation12! So you might have seen this discussion before, but there the Possible F5/EF5/T10+ tornadoes officially rated F4/EF4/T9 or lower list was having each tornado discussed. Recently (since yesterday), a few specific tornadoes have been debated like the 2013 El Reno tornado and 2021 Western Kentucky tornado for inclusion on the list. I wanted to ask if you would be willing to read some of the comments presented and give an opinion. Here is a link for the 2021 WK tornado's discussion and here is a link for the 2013 El Reno tornado's discussion. Myself, ChessEric, and TornadoLGS had discussions for basically all of the tornadoes on the long list, so if you wish to spend a little extra time, feel free to comment on any of the other tornadoes in the discussion list...though...it is 55 tornadoes in the discussion. Have a good day! Elijahandskip ( talk) 18:47, 12 November 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I’m really sorry about the confusion I caused yesterday. For some reason, I thought the PNS from NWS Fort Worth listed the northeastern Grapevine tornado as an EF1 with 105 mph winds, which is usually the start of the designation of a high-end EF1. I notice now that the tornado was rated EF1 (100 mph). Completely my mistake, sorry again. Nicholas Krasznavolgyi ( talk) 15:14, 16 December 2022 (UTC)

Your hostile behavior is reaching a point of being unacceptable, with consistent WP:TPNO violations. You can have strong opinions and express them, but you cannot do so at the expense of others. Disparaging other users ( WP:NPA) for not understanding how to use DAT and adamantly refuting concerns brought up by other editors without giving them a chance to explain is not how this works. You also don't get to decide whose opinion does and doesn't matter. I value the immense amount of work you've done over the years but this attitude cannot continue. If you continue at this rate you run the risk of losing editing privileges. You did not even give me a chance to comment before reverting and you've done the same for another long-time editor (now predominantly a lurker) [1] . This was followed by aggressive comments waiting for someone to respond, which I was in the process of. Wikipedia is not a chat room and responses should not be expected immediately, things happen in the real world that can delay a reply. You're really not helping yourself either by canvassing other editors to support your opinion ( WP:CANVAS) ~ Cyclonebiskit ( chat) 05:48, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello there! I am sending this alert to all members of the WikiProject Weather and editors who have recently edited in the realm of tornadoes.
There is a large and important discussion ongoing, with the goal to completely overhaul and improve the List of F5 and EF5 tornadoes. The previous improvement attempt back in 2022/2023 gained almost no participation. This alert is being sent out so these discussions hopefully gain a reasonably-sized participation, so the F5/EF5 tornado article, one of the most viewed weather-related articles on Wikipedia, can be improved for all readers!
