Comments from a copyeditor

When Tropical Depression Thirteen strengthened into Tropical Storm Luis on August 29, it marked the earliest date on which the twelfth named storm of any season formed, surpassing the previous record set by Tropical Storm Twelve of the 1933 season. - Storm #12 wasn't a named storm, though I can't think of any other way to word this at the moment. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 01:48, 17 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Continual wind shear prevented significant organization, as convection was displaced from the center of circulation. - This would be nearly impossible for a casual reader to comprehend. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 01:55, 17 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

With a Category 4 hurricane forecast to track directly over the Leeward Islands, Hurricane Warnings were issued for several islands by September 4. - I don't believe "Hurricane Warnings" should be capitalized; thoughts? –Juliancolton | ^Talk 02:05, 17 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Operationally, the NHC briefly downgraded Luis to a Category 3 hurricane as it passed through the islands due to the formation of concentric eyewalls;[21] however, in post-season analysis, it was determined that the storm never weakened below Category 4 status while passing through the Leeward Islands. - Pretty clunky, though I don't feel competent to try to dissect this sentence. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 02:08, 17 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The second paragraph of the lead is a bit choppy, so you might want to look into this. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 02:24, 17 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comments:

The storm originated from an area of low pressure associated with a tropical wave. <-- Yeah, uh, when?
...with a well-defined 46 mi- (74 km) wide eye <-- fix convert/whatever there (don't need the hyphen)
I would suggest removing the place names from the headers for consistency.
Add a piece of records to the lead.
Wikilink Greenland.
Split second paragraph of the Bermuda/dissipation section.
Find a better image than File:Hurricane Luis on September 6 1995.png.

After this, i am going to put it on hold for fixing.Mitch/HC32 20:05, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
