Rainfall graphics

edit

While the graphics for Ana have been prepared for Puerto Rico, the legend needs to be modified to correspond to San Juan's preliminary tropical cyclone report, which was issued at the same time the graphics were produced. The amount was similar, but not identical. The modification will be made on Monday. Thegreatdr (talk) 13:04, 22 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.

  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  

Specific concerns

  • Lead:
    • Jargon: "non-convective remnant" needs linking or expaining.
    • More jargon: "increasing wind shear" needs explaining to those not hurricane buffs
    • Any reason you've linked Dominican Republic but not Lesser Antilles and Puerto Rico?
    • I think something is missing in this sentence: "In Puerto Rico, up to 2.76 in (70 mm), causing street flooding and forcing the evacuation of three schools." up to 2.76 in what?
  • Meteorological history:
    • "After slowly organizing for a few days, the NHC declared that the system had developed into a tropical depression, the second of the season, early on August 11 while located roughly 280 mi (455 km) west of the Cape Verde Islands." is very ... convoluted. Suggest breaking into two sentences.
    • I don't understand "Gradual intensification of the depression was anticipated as it tracked over marginally warm sea surface temperatures and into an area of low wind shear; however, dry air would limit the strengthening.", what exactly was the sequence? Was it expected to intensify, but didn't because of dry air? If so, you need to reword to make this clearer ..
    • "Shortly after, it was determined, in post-storm analysis, that Ana had degenerated into a tropical wave, no longer a tropical cyclone." convoluted wording suggest rewording.
I've put the article on hold for seven days to allow folks to address the issues I've brought up. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, or here with any concerns, and let me know one of those places when the issues have been addressed. If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on.
