Preparations section

[edit]

Seeing as it's only a few words long, is it possible to merge it with the impact section? –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 04:02, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • "Late on October 5, the hurricane struck Bahia Honda Key, Florida, with winds of 105 mph (165 km/h) and near Flamingo about two hours later. " something just seems weird here, especially the "of 105 mph (165 km/h) and near Flamingo" bit. Maybe "Late on October 5, the hurricane struck Bahia Honda Key, Florida, with winds of 105 mph (165 km/h) and two hours later, hit Flamingo." YE Pacific Hurricane
  • "In Cuba, homes and cattle were swept away by flash flooding." link to flash flooding. YE Pacific Hurricane
  • "Prior to reanalysis in 2014, it was thought that Fox briefly strengthened into a Category 4 hurricane with winds of 135 mph (215 km/h)," 115 knots is technically 130 mph though?
  • "The cyclone produced a storm surge of 4.5 feet (1.4 m) on Biscayne Bay. Rainfall exceeded 9.5 inches (241.30 mm) at the Miami airport station, inundating many streets in the city and in Hialeah, Homestead, Miami Beach, Miami Springs. In Hialeah, the city mayor reported water depths of 3.5 ft (1.1 m) in the streets." consistently abbreviate units here since you do it everywhere else.
