November 1-4

Should there be a tornado table there? I converted all tornadoes to Fujita scale, would be F1, F2, and F3. Emersyniscool (talk) 13:17, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Storm Ciarán

Can someone check if there have been anymore tornadoes confirmed from the storm? Emersyniscool (talk) 21:53, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm back

Hello just letting everyone know that I'm still alive. I moved and took a long break from editing tornado articles but I'm ready to return to it. I'm more of a "details" guy who goes through the surveys, DAT, and media reports to find all the relevant damage information I can and make sure it's published and sourced here. I stopped toward the end of April, so I have May through October I need to catch up on (yikes). I figured I'd let everyone know before you start seeing a bunch of new edits and details being added under my username.

International Fujita Scale Templates

Now that the ESSL rates all the tornadoes in their database via the IF scale, shouldn't all the tables for European tornado events use the IF scale template? Just wondering because it looks like only the Storm Ciaran tornadoes have the official IF scale template. I have no problem converting the other previous European tornado listings from this year to that template if that's what we want to do.

The ratings on the 9-step scale started formally in August 2023. I think anything prior to that (excluding the 12-step IF scale ratings like the 2021 South Moravia tornado) should just keep the F scale templates. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 08:43, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ok sounds good. I'll make sure everything from August 2023 forward has the IF scale, while anything before that has the regular Fujita scale.

International Fujita Scale Template Isn't Working Right

I'm confused with the IF template in the recent Storm Ciaran section. Why is it that when I put in a "1" for IF1.5 it shows up as "3"? It only displays "1" if I enter "1" in the adjacent IF1 column. One entry shouldn't affect entries in the other columns. We can't use these if they are glitchy and display incorrect information. Who here knows about templates and how to fix this? I'm tempted to use the regular Fujita scale template until this is dealt with. I don't want inaccurate data to be displayed.

Never mind, I got it working thankfully.

Hurricane idalia

Should there be a section for the tornadoes? Also, the july-august tornado article does not iclude august 29th. Chesneycat789 (talk) 18:58, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

August 24 tornado fatality

NCDC has 2 but it could be an error, should we update the fatalities? 107.123.49.68 (talk) 17:17, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

April 4-5 2023 tornado outbreak

I think there should be an April 4-5 2023 tornado outbreak article because 5 people were killed, it might be connected to a fatal blizzard in the upper plains (Vanessa), and 7 deaths is grounds for an article.160.72.80.50 (talk) 20:29, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Possible outbreak today? (11/20/23)

SPC outlook says 10% chance for tornadoes in an enhanced risk area. I'd say we keep a close eye on it if suddenly, it appears to be something major. Poodle23 (talk) 13:08, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
