Too do
edit- The Tropical Depressions should have numbers
- Wheres the timeline graph? - once this is made you can remove the references from the lead.Jason Rees (talk) 14:59, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- My replies:
- The only Preliminary Report which gave a number to a tropical depression was the one for Josephine.
- I'll get right on making a timeline graph.

- Since there is a timeline graph, it passes B3, great work, I suggest a FLC run with this one :) --Anhamirak 17:54, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

- I personally don't see the point in waiting, to be honest; correct me if I am mistaken, but wouldn't 3 simultaneous FLC's be a good sign for WPTC? I read about former troubles the project went through with marginal inactivity; maybe 3 FLC's at the same time could be a sign that WPTC is re-activating. Besides, I don't remember reading about a limit on the number of hurricane season timelines allowed to be at FLC at the same time. I fully respect and understand your opinion though, and I would be more than happy to delay the FLC should other editors agree with you. Best, Dylan620 (contribs, logs) 18:20, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- There is no imposed limit but to avoid flooding with the same type of articles, it's best to limit the number of FxCs so we don't overdo it. FAC can go up to four IIRC and FLC is three, but having three timelines is a bit much, especially since they're all in the same basin. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 18:32, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- If the article meets WP:WIAFL, I don't see why it can't be nominated straight away. –Juliancolton | Talk 18:40, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

"Hurricane Huron"
editNobody's mentioned it yet here, so I thought I'd bring up the proverbial "800 pound gorilla in the room" of the 1996 North Atlantic Hurricane Season: Hurricane Huron.
Should it even be mentioned in the timeline?
To be honest, Hurricane Huron has pretty much become part of the culture of my home State of Michigan, and around here, you can't talk about the events of 1996 without someone mentioning Hurricane Huron.
It's that culturally significant around here.
Yeah, I know I've just opened a giant can of worms, but the question has to be asked. 68.41.217.174 (talk) 03:33, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
