 * Question This appears to be OR by the uploader, rather than data from an 'official' source. Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:39, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Its not. All that data is publicly available. NOAA releases all the info about tornadoes (start and end locations with coords), path lengths, strength, and all that on the Storm Events Database or the Damage Assessment Toolkit, where a person and straight up see the exact path and even what structures were hit. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet has every tornado warning (and ever NWS warning for that fact) downloadable publicly. The Storm Prediction Center keeps a detailed record of every outlook issued. They also have a ton of detailed info (like coords for tornadoes reported) and everything like that (March 31 on the SPC). No OR at all. In short, all info is from the U.S. government or Iowa State University. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 22:32, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Oppose I don't think it is particularly visually pleasing to look at, it is a bit cluttered and unclear what I am looking at. I understand there will be a blurb with it but I feel like this is not the best of the best. LegalSmeagolian (talk) 22:47, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Support – It's informative and hence good EV. Sources are sorted out and looks good to me. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 16:48, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose – Agree with LegalSmeagolian. ― Howard • 🌽33 19:33, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
