Hello TropicalAnalystwx13, I will be reviewing this tonight.--12george1 (talk) 04:30, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

• "increased wind shear, an impinging cold front, and increasingly cool ocean temperatures all prompted" - Wikilink wind shear, cold front, and sea surface temperature
  • Done. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk)
• "Winds over hurricane-force impacted numerous locations" - I think the word "over" should be removed and then first part be reworded because I don't think there's such a thing as winds stronger than hurricane force
  • Yes. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 00:27, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
• "The storm was responsible for two deaths: one when a tree fell on a vehicle in County Durham, United Kingdom, and another during a multi-car accident on the M54 motorway resulting from adverse weather conditions" - You should probably say "The storm was responsible for two deaths in the United Kingdom:..." and removed United Kingdom after County Durham, so then it is immediately known that both deaths occurred in the UK
  • Ok. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 00:27, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
• "In total, the post-tropical cyclone caused £100m ($122 million 2016 USD) in damage in the United Kingdom alone." - Is that the only damage toll? The infobox says $157 million USD (2011). Or is there a discrepancy because the USD totals are different years? Regardless of the reason, make them both 2011. Also, delink United Kingdom here if you follow through on the previous comment
  • Yeah, USD totals are different years and British pound has been decreasing in value (157 mill. 2011 --> 127 mill. 2016). Changed. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 00:27, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
• "On August 27, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) began monitoring" - Wikilink National Hurricane Center
  • Ok. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 00:27, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
• "Guadeloupe for the potential of 3–5 meter (10–16 ft) swells.[13] Antigua and Barbuda recorded 0.85 inches (21.59 mm) of rainfall" - Why the switch in the order of the units?
  • Idk. :P TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 00:27, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
• I was out of town until yesterday. I'm gonna pass this now.--12george1 (talk) 21:50, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
