"Crops in the areas effected saw large losses, particularly the rice crop." Grammar error, "effected" ---> "affected"

Done - Always gets me, thanks. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 21:16, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"noted at around this time, later renalysis was conducted on the system," - Typo, "renalysis" ---> "reanalysis"

Done - Not paying attention to the red-squiggly spell check lines. :D TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 21:16, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"The cumulation of the hurricane's affects resulted in the destruction of" - Did you mean "accumulation", instead of "cumulation"?

Done - Not sure why I used cumulation, changed. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 21:16, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"Matagorda and San Antonio Bays decredased by" - Typo, "decredased" to "decreased"

Done - Fixed. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 21:16, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"There, damage was limited to oil derricks and other light strucutres." - Another typo, "strucutres" ---> "structures"

Done - Typos everywhere! TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 21:16, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"to damage 70 of the 75 planes at the local" - What's with the extra space there?

Done - Was not aware of the extra space after the non-breaking, thanks. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 21:16, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"at the local municipal airport" - Why not just call it the San Antonio International Airport or San Antonio Airport, as there are several other city names mentioned before the last use of the city name San Antonio?

Done - Changed appropriately to "Alamo Field," the name of the airport at the time. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 21:16, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why is the buttons template not at the bottom of the page? Don't worry, I would ask you to change them, since this isn't an FA. :P

Done - Was also not aware that this template existed, and you would or wouldn't ask me? TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 21:16, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, I will check back in a week or unless otherwise notified earlier of these issues being addressed. Regards, --12george1 (talk) 16:20, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
