Will add stuff as I go along.

The depression maintained a well-defined circulation as it tracked inland along the coastline of Alabama and Florida. - Not sure how it could be both inland and along the coast.

I wasn't sure how to word this so it clearly says that it says that the storm was close to water but not over it. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 14:26, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The slow motion of the storm led to intermittent westward wobbles. - Needs clarification and/or rewording.

I think I clarified it Cyclonebiskit (talk) 14:30, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

By that time, the storm had become visible on New Orleans, Louisiana, radar imagery, which depicted an open eyewall. - Does "open eyewall" mean it was cloud-free?

Images need alt text.

Ugh, can you do this please? Cyclonebiskit (talk) 14:26, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done –Juliancolton | ^Talk 17:45, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One of the readings from a dropsonde, that was disregarded, recorded winds of 191 mph (307 km/h) in the lower-levels of the eyewall. - By whom was it disregarded, and for what purpose?

CCI check

Checks per Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/WikiProject Tropical cyclones.

See CCI check at Effects of Hurricane Georges in Louisiana. That is as far as I got in the 1998 Atlantic hurricane season suite of articles, but there are indications of more copying within. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 01:13, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
