Grand Isle Hurricane of 1909

I created Grand Isle Hurricane of 1909 as a redirect to this article for now, but I think it is a storm of enough significance to deserve an article eventually. Any other suggestions for the title, or is this as close to a standard name as it has? -- Infrogmation 23:02, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. I'm surprised this doesn't have an article. That name works. Hurricanehink 02:46, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Todo

I upped it to start, seeing as it does have mention of every storm. For any higher, it needs at least one paragraph of each storm. Hurricanehink (talk) 13:36, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Source for modern hurricane season start and end dates?

I didn't really edit the lead. I should remove that because there was no concept of hurricane season until circa 1935 apparently--12george1 (talk) 04:47, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"The most notable storm during the season formed in late August, while east of the Lesser Antilles. Moving west to west-northwestward, the storm quickly gained hurricane status, and traversed much of the Greater Antilles before strengthening into a Category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane scale and crossing the Yucatán Peninsula. Briefly weakening after its interaction with land, it strengthened into a Category 3 once again, and made landfall in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas on August 27 before rapidly dissipating the following day." why three sentences in the lead for just one system? Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:58, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Again, that's what I get for not really editing the lead :P --12george1 (talk) 04:47, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"an Extratropical cyclone northeast of the Bahamas" why the capital "Extratropical"? Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:58, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"It is only calculated for full advisories on tropical systems at or exceeding 39 mph (63 km/h), which is tropical storm strength." why mention this since there were no intermediate advisories back then? Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:58, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed--12george1 (talk) 04:47, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"However, operational analysis on the storm in 1999 indicated that it was only a tropical storm.[8]" I take it you mean 1909 here, correct? Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:58, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I did mean 1999, but I need to reword that sentence--12george1 (talk) 04:47, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You mention around three times in two's section. Maybe change one to "approximately"? Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:58, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I removed two of them--12george1 (talk) 04:47, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

" in New Orleans, Louisiana.[2]" why mention the state name of a major city? You don't for Monterrey and Cancun. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:58, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed--12george1 (talk) 04:47, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Late on August 24, weakened to a tropical depression while approaching the coast of Mexico,[1] with the weakening probably caused by wind shear generated by the sixth storm.[2]" what weakened? Donald Trump's polling numbers? :P Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:58, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed--12george1 (talk) 04:47, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"there were two deaths,[37] both from fatal injuries during the storm.[37] " isn't that redundant? Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:58, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed--12george1 (talk) 04:47, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please remove landfalls in the SE chart. I lost that fight years ago. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:58, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
