"A tropical depression developed on September 13, and the next day attained tropical storm status." - Nay comma.
- Removed. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 04:53, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) started monitoring the system.[4][nb 1]" - Notes before references.
- ok. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 04:53, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"Both the JMA and JTWC upgraded the depression into Tropical Storm Abby at 00:00 UTC on September 14." - Why the double space ?

"On September 14, Abby, while moving west-northwest,[2] began to develop a central dense overcast – a large mass of deep convection – and thus began to intensify" --> "On a west-northwest course, Abby developed a central dense overcast and began to intensify later that day."
- Why? Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 04:53, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"Due to land interaction, the storm's upper- to low-level circulations decoupled" - Not if they were decoupled to begin with like you said above.
- Seems doubtful given that the storm was 95 knots. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 04:53, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"Officials reported that because the typhoon struck, travel due to the Mid-Autumn Festival dropped 20%" - As a result of the typhoon, travel to the Mid-Autumn Festival dropped by 20%.
- Done. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 04:53, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"As a precaution, flights to Taiwan's two main airports, the Chiang Kai-shek Airport in suburban Taipei and Kaohsiung International Airport in the southern portion of the country, were diverted elsewhere,[9] but the airports re-opened 12 hours after the cyclone passed.[10]" - Split this sentence after [9] with a semicolon.
- Why? You have a compound/complex sentence either way and I'd prefer a transition word. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 04:53, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"including 52 mm (2.0 in) in one hour." - This isn't notable. I see this frequently at my house.
- It's the highest in Japan, and a typically include three rainfall peaks (storm total, 24 hour, hour). But just for you, I'll remove it. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 04:53, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
