"During the first couple weeks of August 1975," - Well no, there are only 4 total weeks in a month. :P
- And a couple is two so I don't see the problem. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:50, 7 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
" In the 24-hours after being designated a typhoon" - No hyphen necessary. Same for the instance later in the paragraph.
- I've see users with AWB change "24-hours" to "24 hours" throughout my articles in the past, so I just include the hyphen. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:50, 7 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
"aircraft data measured a minimum barometric pressure of 920 mbar (27 inHg)" - 27 inHg ranges from 920mb to 950mb. 920mb is more specifically 27.17 inHg.
- Added |sigfigs=3. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:50, 7 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
"The agency continued to track the system until August 20 when it was meandering over the Sea of Japan.[6][nb 1]" - Notes before refs.
- Fixed. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:50, 7 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
"A minimum pressure of 970 mbar (29 inHg) was recorded on Shimizu." - More specific inHg pls
- See above. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane
"Nearby, on, winds of 143 km/h (89 mph) were observed." - What?
- Missing word. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:50, 7 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
"with over 76 mm (3 in) of rainfall fall in an hour in parts of Kochi Prefecture." - No
- Fixed grammar error. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:50, 7 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
" It also contributed to a heat wave that claimed 25 lives." - How?
- I don't now for sure but probably heat stroke/heat exhaustion. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 00:50, 7 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
