Storm05 listen to me-consult me before you do anything major! These are mine you know.THAT WASNT FOR 1979! THATS WAS FOR MY LNBS!HurricaneCraze32 20:38, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Calm down! It was an innocent mistake. The article appeared to be a real article, considering no one knows what LNBS is. Hurricanehink 14:45, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

I liked the article, but the only little problem I noticed was the part saying that Bob of 91 was the strongest and most devastating storm of 1991. The devastation part is correct (not counting the Perfect Storm's damage as damage by a tropical system), but if you're talking about strength as in mbar and wind speeds, Hurricane Claudette was the most intense that year.

Here's a link providing info on some impact in Indiana. Hurricanehink (talk) 04:49, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I'be upgraded this to B-class, but it needs significant work on citations and comprehensiveness before it can go up for GA. —Cuiviénen 14:59, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

There are a lot of grammar problems like "The day after, convection increased and was declared a tropical depression on the 9th." I think the contractions are all gone, but I'm not sure. Good kitty 21:20, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

I dropped it back to start due to the immense grammar problems. Hurricanehink (talk) 04:39, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

• Fix all units. If you're not sure what the problem is, look at any of the featured hurricane articles
  • You have some dollar amounts in 2006 USD, and others in 2008 - pick a year, preferably 2008
• Overall copyedit is desperately needed, as the prose is all around very poor

• You should link to Atlantic hurricane in the opening sentence. And speaking of, what about George in 1950-2? Mike in 1950? Charlie?
  • Linked, and clarified that it was the first after the discontinuation of Phonetic alphabet names. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)}
• "and areas further inland " - distance means this should be "farther"
  • Changed. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)}
• "and was the third tropical cyclone to form during the annual hurricane season" - the template at the bottom of the article doesn't agree with this
  • Altered to reflect template data. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)}
• "and not atypical of a minimal hurricane" - why not just say "and typical of..."?
  • Shortened. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)}
• "for the death of one person" --> "for one death"
  • Changed. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)}
• Just saying, the July 1959 gulf hurricane does have an article
  • Linked parts to Hurricane Debra (1959). TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)}
• "These warnings were upgraded to hurricane warnings upon Bob's strengthening to such and intensity" - eh?
  • Changed 'and' to 'an'. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)}
• I'm confused in the tornado section where these occurred
  • Added state suffixes. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)}
• Any more Indiana impact?
  • Unfortunately, I could not find information on Indiana impact; where there was information there was no explicit connection to Bob. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 23:10, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

Generally good article, just a few comments and such. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 04:57, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
