Elkhorn NE Tornado EF4?
editPer the damage indicator map from the NWS it appears 2 EF4 damage indicators have been added for this tornado. Should this be reflected as an EF4 now or do we need some other source of citation? Also backed up by Hunter Hurley storm chaser: [1]. --Kuzwa (talk) 04:53, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Kuzwa: See this discussion for why Wikipedia is keeping it EF3. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 05:02, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Short summary: The tornado is officially and formally rated EF3. The EF4 rating is preliminary and not the official rating. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 05:04, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- NWS Omaha responded to this. They will announce their decision on Monday, for now it is still an EF3 and so no changes need to be made until confirmed otherwise DukeDragon28 (talk) 07:57, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
Bayesian disaster
editThe storm that sunk the Bayesian is being reported to likely have been a tornadic waterspout. Should it be added to this list? Ionmars10 (talk) 05:44, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- No as it has not been confirmed whether the Bayesian was sunk by severe wind or a tornadic waterspout. The ESSL have listed the event as severe wind with a possibility of being a tornado and [2]https://www.meteonetwork.it/tt/stormreport/ has not listed the event as a tornado in their Storm Report.

- Authorities are now saying it was a downburst and not a waterspout. Ionmars10 (talk) 21:35, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
