• Could you get a better source for the first sentence? Perhaps HURDAT's list of US hurricane landfalls? Instead of the entire database

• Done--12george1 (talk) 17:15, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• "A fifth storm was found in reanalysis in 2009." - considering it was a hurricane, perhaps say "One of the hurricanes" instead of "A fifth storm", which feels out of place in the lead

• Done--12george1 (talk) 17:15, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• "Observations from ships indicated that a tropical disturbance developed into a tropical depression developed offshore Cabo Gracias a Dios, Nicaragua, on June 12." - this will make it tighter

• TS 1 caused a flood disaster in El Salvador, killing at least 100 people. I was trying to find more about H4, but found this instead. I recommend doing a bit more searching on the event, [1922 El Salvador flood] should yield some results.

• Oops, I went searching for Belize, Mexico, and Texas. Never thought about El Salvador--12george1 (talk) 00:41, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

• "Further down the river" - farther?

• Done--12george1 (talk) 17:15, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• "The cyclone strengthened slightly further" - slightly or further, no need for both IMO

• Done--12george1 (talk) 17:15, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• "Around 12:00 UTC on September 21, it passed almost directly over Bermuda while still at major hurricane intensity." - I suggest rewording to "the hurricane passed almost directly over Bermuda", as it's the beginning of the new paragraph, and you don't want readers wondering what "it" is

• "while the coast experienced storm surge reaching 8 ft (2.4 m) in height" - grammar?

• Done--12george1 (talk) 17:15, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• "Repairs costs to government buildings was estimated at roughly 50,000£,[1] with the overall damage reaching approximately $250,000 (1922 USD)." - how big of a pain would it be to have these damage totals in the same currency?

• Done--12george1 (talk) 00:41, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

• How long did H2 last?

• About nine days. I'm not sure that's really worth mentioning--12george1 (talk) 17:15, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• I meant when did it stop existing as a cyclone? You mention the extratropical transition but not when the storm dissipated. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:52, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

• Could you do some more research for Hurricane Four? Check newspapers for some more impacts?

• Added more info--12george1 (talk) 00:41, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

• Thank you!! ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 13:52, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

• "At approximately 06:00 UTC on October 14, the storm made landfall on Isla de la Juventud, Cuba, with winds of 40 mph (65 km/h), just about six hours before striking modern-day southwestern Artemisa Province at the same intensity." - that sentence is a lot

• Done--12george1 (talk) 17:15, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• For TS 5 - "The system left minimal impact in Cuba and the Gulf Coast of the United States." - what were these minimal impacts? Any measurable rainfall?

• I really couldn't find anything. That big document with rainfall maps from tropical cyclones doesn't even have it.--12george1 (talk) 00:41, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

• " It may have been a subtropical storm due to some hybrid characteristics. " - link subtropical?

• Done--12george1 (talk) 17:15, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• Under "Depressions" - "A strong tropical wave formed between the Cape Verde Islands and Senegal on September 21. Moving generally westward, the depression was last noted between the islands of Fogo and Santiago on September 22." - you never mention when this TD formed

All in all a good season article, but I feel like a bit more work needs to be done, especially TS 1 and H4. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:53, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
