Comment "moving"
Your comment is a !vote in the discussion, which is not a direct reply to me, and shouldn't be construed as such. Hence why I removed one colon from your reply to indent it the same as all other responses to the original discussion. Furthermore, it's generally accepted that a commenter may "reply to themselves" at the top of any other replies to their original comment - especially if adding to or clarifying their original comment. You're free to "re-indent" if you want, but my reply to myself should remain right below my comment. I would've also preferred you ask me why I did what I did rather than a snarky and rude reply in an edit summary which removed my clarification from my comment. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 02:01, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh, whoops. I didn't mean to do that. I thought you were just being rude or something. My fault.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 02:03, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
 * It's okay :) - I should've made a comment on why I was removing a colon when I made the edit - so it all started from me failing to do that. It's all okay, and we resolved it amicably, at least in my opinion. No fault necessary - we both made what in the grand scheme of Wikipedia are extremely minor oopsies lol. Sorry for the confusion. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 02:05, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

April 28th Debris signature
Well did you see that there was a pds tornado warning on one cell in Arkansas but did it ever cause damage or was it just not put on the list because there was a tornado report on that cell Colin777724 (talk) 22:30, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Wait if the pds tornado in Arkansas didn’t cause any damage or no storm survey was on it then wouldn’t beat the EFU in Adair Oklahoma because that efu crossed the ok/ar line boarder Colin777724 (talk) 22:33, 3 May 2021 (UTC)


 * If I'm not mistaken, the PDS tornado warning issued stated that the tornado was DEVELOPING not on the ground. Also, we go off of survey data, which did not put that tornado in Arkansas. A report is just that; a report. Not all tornado reports become confirmed tornadoes.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 22:36, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Oh I see thanks for telling but so there wasn’t a storm survey of people that went to that area then? Colin777724 (talk) 23:10, 3 May 2021 (UTC)


 * There was, but as far as I know, no tornadic damage was confirmed. Of course, that doesn't mean it won't be confirmed later, but as of now, no damage was confirmed in Arkansas.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 23:21, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Thank the lord I guess it was part of that efu though most likely since it was the same pds debris signature. Colin777724 (talk) 23:45, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

But there was damage confirmed in Arkansas this time though and it was big time wind damage and tornado damage Colin777724 (talk) 05:25, 6 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Still, listing a tornado as having touched down and providing a rating without a survey confirming it would be WP:SYNTH. I checked the storm reports from that date and they do not mention tornado damage. There are circumstances where it may appear that a tornado has touched down when one has not.

I’m not talking about April 28th I’m Talking about May3rd and May4th. During that there was tornado damage but the storm surveys are still figuring out how long the damage path was Colin777724 (talk) 22:25, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I believe we still have to wait for the survey in that case.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 15:37, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Worst case, we may have to wait for the NCDC update. We usually get a few EF0 and EFU tornadoes added with that. TornadoLGS (talk) 18:23, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Speaking of which, the NCDC did an update up to January 2021. I will need some help with that.ChessEric (talk · contribs) 19:08, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I'll see what's in it today. I also have 81 tornadoes to add to the map, including a bunch in TN and KY that don't don't appear to have coords. TornadoLGS (talk) 19:14, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I gotcha. I'm pretty busy myself, but its mostly with life. LOL!ChessEric (talk · contribs) 19:18, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
