Preliminary data. Local Storm Reports are preliminary reports from spotters, emergency managers, the public, and instruments. Sizes, speeds, times, and locations can be estimated and may later be revised. The verified record is published later in the NOAA Storm Events Database. A nearby weather report does not prove that damage occurred at a specific property; physical inspection is still required.
