This market will resolve YES if there are 5 or more confirmed EF4 or EF5 tornadoes in the United States during the calendar year 2025. Resolution will be based on official National Weather Service storm surveys and the NOAA Storm Events Database.

Update 2025-05-18 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The creator has provided an update on specific tornadoes relevant to the market's resolution:
- A tornado near Marion, Illinois has been confirmed as EF4.
- If the tornado that went through London, Kentucky (currently rated EF3+) is upgraded to an EF4 or EF5, this would bring the total of such tornadoes to 5, and the market will resolve YES.

@traders Tornado near Marion Illinois confirmed EF4. The tornado the went through London Kentucky is currently EF3+, if this is an EF4 or EF5 it will bring our total to 5 resolving the market as yes. If this is resolved I may create a new market on how many EF4+ tornadoes 2025 will finish with.

Just saying, there was a tornado just went through London Kentucky, and there was probably EF4+ damage from that.
