Hello TAM! I will be reviewing this article tonight--12george1 (talk) 03:40, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

• "and Cameron, Louisiana later that day," - Remember to add a comma after state names if there's a city and state mentioned. So "and Cameron, Louisiana, later that day," would be correct. There are other instances of this in the article
• "The resultant flooding killed then people." - I think you mean 10 people
• Check for instances of overlinking. With just a quick glance, I'm seeing Caribbean Sea wikilinked twice in the first paragraph of the MH
• "Despite the lowered intensity, Audrey remains tied with 2010's Hurricane Alex as being the most intense Atlantic hurricane in June by pressure and with 1966's Hurricane Alma as having the highest winds of any June hurricane in the Atlantic." - Got a source for that other than BT?
• "The death toll from Audrey was over 500, with the cost of damage estimated between $150–200 million." - But the infobox says at least 431. Considering the source was likely published not too long after the storm (it's dated June 1957), maybe say something like "The Weather Bureau initially estimated that the death toll from Audrey was over 500..."
• "since the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane, which killed approximately 2,800" - The source cited says 2,500
• "and the other classified as F-0 in New Orleans.[57][12][58]" - Switch that around so reference 12 is first. There are a few other instances where a set of multiple refs are not in numerical order
• "the name was retired and will never be used again as a name for a tropical cyclone." - I think you specify that this pertains to Atlantic TCs by changing the ending to "for an Atlantic tropical cyclone" or something like that, as I'm seeing that Audrey was used at least once in the SWIO and in the AUS after this hurricane
• For reference 56, I'm seeing this. "National Weather Service Forecast Ofifce Lake Charles, Louisiana. "NOWData – NOAA Online Weather Data". National Weather Service Forecast Ofifce Lake Charles, Louisiana. Lake Charles, Louisiana: National Weather Service. Retrieved June 26, 2018." First of all, office is misspelled twice. Second, you're basically saying NWS Lake Charles three times. Maybe delete the one in the author= parameter?
• The url for reference 78 ("Hurricane Damage to Rockefeller Refuge") is a deadlink

Good work on the effort to bring this former GA back to Good Article status. It is nearly back to GA, with only minor problems standing in the way.--12george1 (talk) 03:40, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

I've taken care of all of these for TAM, with the exception of the best track source. However, I think that is sufficient as is. Thanks for the review! 🌧❄ϟ TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk · contributions) 03:37, 20 March 2020 (UTC)

@12george1: Big thanks to TropicalAnalystwx13 for taking care of these amid peculiar disruptions. As for the statement about Audrey's record intensity, I wasn't able to find anything other than HURDAT for that. Alex's pressure was revised downward in post-season analysis and Audrey's winds were adjusted down in HURDAT reanalysis, so its current standing seems to have flown under the radar. For that reason, most non-updated sources obsoletely claim that Audrey stands alone for June pressures and winds in the Atlantic. —TheAustinMan^{(Talk ⬩ Edits)} 14:17, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
