Where's the deaths?

[edit]

Jova's killed two, says AP. Can't post it myself since I'm in a hurry. Can someone else post it for me? Just use Google News to find it. Thanks! HurricaneFan25 19:54, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wind speed

[edit]

The opening paragraph has "maximum sustained winds of 125 mph (201 km/h)" — but the infobox has "125 mph (205 km/h)". 125 mph = 201.125 km/h ... so the infobox needs correction. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do it, as those figures don't appear. Prisoner of Zenda (talk) 11:39, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Prisoner of Zenda, it shows up like that because the original values from the National Hurricane Center are provided in knots and rounded to the nearest multiple of 5. In this case, Jova's peak intensity is 110 knots, which converts to roughly 126.59 mph or 203.72 km/h, which then rounds to 125 mph or 205 km/h. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 14:37, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, KN2731 ... but for consistency, shouldn't both appearances of the speed be the same? If you agree, the opening paragraph needs correction. Prisoner of Zenda (talk) 22:23, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I fixed the inconsistency when I was touching up the article yesterday. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 05:12, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
