A poorly sourced list of largely unrelated statistics. No idea why it jumps from 1946 to 1997, no idea where the number of snowstorms comes from, no idea why we would add the number of tropical cyclones (extreme weather events) to the number of tornadoes (for the most part very local, very minor events) and not count e.g. the number of rainfall-induced floods instead. While comparing the number of US tornadoes or the number of cyclones year by year is done and may be useful, this grouping of these statistics in a kind of novel synthesis with very unclear inclusion rules doesn't seem particularly encyclopedic. WP:NOTSTATS and so on. Fram (talk) 16:02, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
