Article

[edit]

May I ask why this has had an article for days now? Why isn't this a draft? NoahTalk 01:05, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There is already a discussion of that at Talk:2019 Atlantic hurricane season#Can someone create articles for Hurricane Humberto (2019) and Tropical Storm Imelda?. TornadoLGS (talk) 01:36, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Peak intensity

[edit]

06z BT revised the intensity to 100 kt from the 110 kt that it originally was, however the discussion still shows 110 kt. Because of this, what should we set the peak as. I would say 105 kt since that’s what both the BT and discussions have. --MarioProtIV (talk/contribs) 15:34, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@MarioProtIV: The operational BT never overrides the NHC's intensity. Since they gave 110 knots, it shall remain that until the TCR comes out. NoahTalk 17:26, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Great job on the article. It goes into really good depth. I appreciated this little factoid -

In an effort to communicate storm dangers to the public, Bermuda's government held a public press conference, activated the Emergency Measures Organisation's emergency broadcast FM radio station, and sent updates to users of a new official mobile app called Tree Frog, introduced just months prior.

There's not much I noticed that stood out. Here's what I got:

  • Why does the infobox say 9/26 as end date?
  • " 65 miles (100 km)" - link units? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  • "In Bermuda, the progressive motion of Humberto combined with low astronomical tides limited rainfall and coastal flooding" - could you simplify?
  • L.F. Wade International Airport, Royal Naval Dockyard, and the Bermuda Weather Service compound all suffered considerable damage. - extra word?
  • "Mid- and upper-level flow associated with the earlier trough continued to affect Humberto, shearing deep convection toward the north, decoupling the storm's low- and mid-level centers, and driving dry air into the storm." - could you make this more basic at first (Humberto struggled to intensify because X)? It's right, just a bit technical, which is fine if you ease the readers into it. JMHO
  • "As conditions deteriorated, the airport closed at 3 pm ADT on September 18" - you use UTC throughout the rest of the article. Later on, when you say "noon local time", this seems fine. I'm not sure if you need a specific note about time. Considering how good the article was, this is more of a nitpick.
  • - great factoid, and a great way of placing the storm at its place in history
  • Impact section three = header for the Bahamas?
  • "between 7 pm and 10 pm on September 18" - local time? Have a note that all Bermuda times are local? I'm not sure what's right ._.
  • " Estimates of the number of buildings left with damaged roofs ranged from 500 to 600" --> "An estimated 500–600 buildings sustained roof damage..." Just an suggested way of rewriting it.
  • I suggest you start the aftermath by indicating it's Bermuda you're talking about
