2017 Minnesota tornadoes

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This topic does not appear to be notable. While the year was above average in the number of tornadoes in MInnesota, they were not particularly impactful, with only two tornadoes meeting the technical definition of "significant." It doesn't really stand out among other potential "tornadoes by state and year" articles. This article also mostly depends on primary sources that routinely cover tornadoes. Most of the information in this article was already present in monthly tornado lists (which are a regular part of WikiProject Weather), such as List of United States tornadoes from June to July 2017.
