• "Similar coastal and freshwater flooding occurred in Pasco County, where 7 homes were destroyed, 305 sustained major damage, and 1,564 received minor damage. " spell out 7 since it is less than 10. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 00:02, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

• " Wind shear prevented quicker development,[13] although conditions became more favorable closer to the Gulf of Mexico." how? more moist air or lower shear? YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 00:02, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

• It appears to have been a reduction of wind shear

• Did Hermine develop an eye? YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}

• Yes, but it was ragged--12george1 (talk) 00:49, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

• "States of emergencies were declared in Georgia,[27] North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, and New Jersey due to the storm.[40] " see above. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 00:02, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

• "Some locations in Puerto Rico observed 3 to 5 in (76 to 127 mm) of rainfall,[45] causing flooding, especially in Ponce area. " missing a "the". YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 00:02, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

• " In Batabanó on Cuba's southern coast, the southerly winds and 8.5 in (215 mm) of rainfall caused moderate flooding.[50]" this sentence implies the southerly winds cause the rain. I don't think this was the case. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 00:02, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

• First to directly impact Tallahassee since Kate. Wikilinked to the 1985 AHS--12george1 (talk) 00:49, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

• "Throughout the county, approximately 75 homes or businesses were inflicted major damage, while 60 had minor impact.[59] " weird use of passive voice. Maybe change trhe "had" to "suffered" or "sustained". YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 00:02, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

• Done--12george1 (talk) 00:49, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
