This article clearly fails GA. The coverage this article has is less than impressive. There are other problems as well. If you act like a duck and quack like a duck, you are a duck. ~ Destroyeraa🌀🇺🇸 01:34, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

I'm not going to do all of this, though I will try to help around with this. Stay safe, Cyclone Toby 04:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Lead

• Lead is too short. Should be two paragraphs.

Met

• Overall damage was fairly minor to moderate as the island were still repairing from a much more destructive and powerful storm such as Ivan, 10 months ago. Does not belong here.
• The storm weakened slightly as it continued westward, and remained a Category 4 while passing south of Jamaica and, on July 17, the Cayman Islands. Emily continued on its nearly straight track to the west-northwest, weakening somewhat but remaining at Category 4 until striking Cozumel just before mainland landfall at Playa del Carmen at 06:30 UTC on July 18. Sustained winds were 135 mph (215 km/h), and the eyewall passed directly over Cozumel. Unsourced.
  •  Partly done
• MH uses the TCR too much. There is an advisory archive fyi.

I am completely rewriting the MH in my sandbox, using more sources and making it larger. Stay safe, Cyclone Toby 12:25, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Preparations

• No US preps

Impact

• For a Category 4 hurricane, impact seems limited in Mexico.
• Haiti impacts? It caused 5 deaths there.
