What this page is — and isn't
Storm reports are the weather service's raw incoming accounts during an event: spotters, law enforcement, emergency managers, media and residents describing what they saw. SPC collects and publishes them the same day. They are not verified — a report can describe damage that a survey later attributes to straight-line winds, and the hardest-hit tornadoes sometimes appear in the file as a single terse line.
Confirmation and any EF rating come only from a National Weather Service damage survey, usually days later, published by the local NWS office — not by SPC and not by this page. Where a report's own narrative mentions survey findings, that text is SPC's, quoted verbatim above.
