Hi TAWX14. I'll be reviewing this article tonight. At a quick glance, the article looks pretty good and appears that the problem I have are mostly minor and shouldn't take too long to fix.--12george1 (talk) 04:52, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In the infobox, you list the TD as the eleventh system, but don't note it in the timeline graphic or the Season effects table
"and several other storms throughout the year resulted in strong winds there." - Normally I'm fine with using storm as a synonym (I myself use the term, of course), but in this case I think you should probably say "several other tropical cyclones". That is the intended meaning of the sentence, but the way the sentence currently is, it's possible that your also just talking about fairly normal thunderstorms
"The Houston, Texas Metropolitan Airport recorded a peak wind gust of 132 mph (212 km/h)" - Link to the William P. Hobby Airport?
There should be a comma after a city and state are mentioned. For example, "but Devers, Texas recorded a maximum storm" -> "but Devers, Texas, recorded a maximum storm"
"It curved northeast after passing within 165 mi (265 km) of Bermuda,[5] where winds peaked at 81 mph (130 km/h),[8] interacting with a high-latitude cyclone to become extratropical by 00:00 UTC on August 26." - You make it sound like the ET was near Bermuda and just after it passed the island, but actually it looks like the ET occurred about halfway between Bermuda and Sable Island
"with winds of 100 mph (160 km/h) the following morning." - This says that 100 mph = 160 km/h. But the infobox says 155 km/h
The remnants of Hurricane Nine left some impacts in Canada: [1]

Hi GeorgeC, I believe I've address all your concerns. Involving the mph --> km/h issue, that's the typical knots to km/h vs. mph to km/h issue that we've familiar with. 100 mph is commonly converted to 160 km/h in NHC advisories. Thanks for the review!

I'm going to pass this article. I think you missed a few of the commas after the city and state, but I'll get them. No need to hold this nomination up over a comma--12george1 (talk) 01:12, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
