Doing...

  • General: Add alt text for all images.
  • Epsilon caused one death in Florida, when a 27-year-old man drowned in rip currents produced by Epsilon. Redundant to mention Epsilon twice.
  • interacting with a dissipating cold front to its north and a negatively-titled upper-level trough Link cold front to cold front, and remove "negatively-tilted." The article is not supposed to be a journal article, and this wording resembles the TCR too much.
  • Even while battling weak-to-moderate deep-layer wind shear and some mid-level dry air, an eye-like feature started to become evident on visible and microwave imagery, giving Epsilon a more tropical structure. This part is confusing. Is Epsilon resembling an occluded EC, or a hybrid storm, or a tropical cyclone? I suggest you remove "giving Epsilon a more tropical structure."
  • It isn't really confusing, IMO. The article explains earlier on that Epsilon already had a more hybrid appearance compared to what you'd normally see in a fully-tropical cyclone. However, I added more to the sentence and added another chunk to an earlier portion to make this distinction more obvious. I chose not to delete the said chunk because it is better to retain this level of detail, so that our readers can have the whole story. LightandDark2000 🌀 (talk) 22:39, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • NHC upgraded the strengthening tropical storm into a Category 1 hurricane into → to
  • Hurricane Hunters aircraft Redundant. →"The reconnaissance aircraft"
  • The image to the left: Hurricane Epsilon as a weakening tropical storm south of Atlantic Canada on October 25 → "Epsilon as a weakening tropical storm south of Atlantic Canada on October 25"

Copyvios: No blatant copyvios, but there is some close paraphrasing concerning the TCR in the first paragraph of the MH.

There really isn't that much copying overall, but I rephrased some portions of the first paragraph. Particularly, the most technical and potentially-confusing portions. Also, Chlod added the Public Domain template to the article (since the NWS's documents are public domain), so that resolves any remaining issues here.

Decent article overall. Destroyer (Alternate account) 20:05, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
