Comments

In the opening paragraph to the intro, it says, "A tropical disturbance located developed within the vicinity of the western Caroline Islands..." Was there supposed to be something more to that "located" bit, or its inclusion merely superfluous? Says the 21st century, "I'm 18 and I like it!" (talk) 06:52, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Long story short, it's the fault of my copyediting. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 07:39, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
From "Meteorological history", paragraph 2: "On the evening of December 11, the JTWC increased the intensity of 170 km/h (105 mph), its peak wind speed." Unless something else that was supposed to be added in there was overlooked, shouldn't that be "increased the intensity to 170 km/h"? Says the 21st century, "I'm 18 and I like it!"

- Yes, good call. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 07:39, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
From "Preparations and Impact: Philippines", paragraph 1: "Sixteen Philippine Airlines flights to and from the central Philippines." The point being, what about the sixteen flights? Could/ought this sentence be merged with one of the surrounding sentences for context? Says the 21st century, "I'm 18 and I like it!" (talk) 07:09, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Just missed a word here. Fixed. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 07:39, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
