[edit] Indirect?

If Emmy caused a plane to crash, shouldn't those be direct deaths? Or did the plane crash because it was evacuating, but not directly because of the storm's winds? — jdorje (talk) 00:21, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

IIRC, the plane crashed during an attempt to emergency land in the Azores. I think that's indirect. Hurricanehink 13:32, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Referring to talk page

Im going to remove the expand request banner if no one discusses about adding more info in the seasonal article. Storm05 17:55, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Huh? It doesn't need discussion. It needs to be expanded. — jdorje (talk) 20:10, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Season button bar

Can I add a season button bar to this page and the Belle article? It's located here. Icelandic Hurricane #12 22:31, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

I definetely wouldnt mind. Tutmosis 22:34, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] TDs

I found out there were quite a few depressions this season, but I can't find out how many and when they formed? Thw WMR is so confusing. Icelandic Hurricane #12 21:21, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

That might be misleading. 25 TD's seems like a lot for such an inactive year. Hurricanehink 00:49, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Captions

The images posted with the tracks for Emmy and Frances aren't satellite images as their captions claim, although there is a satellite image of them between. --Patteroast 13:19, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, I personally don't like the cloud images. I vote we get rid of them. They don't really add that much. Hurricanehink 13:31, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
Hink-you said you couldn't find a picture for most storms <1980. I found mostly the best that i could.Google also has a Bob (1979) sattilite but its a .bmp file,(I never got a reply for the other 2 and they were removed from Google oddly).HurricaneCraze32 20:10, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
They aren't satellite iamges, they are clouds. If anyone wants to, they can split up the pic of Emmy and Frances for the storm pics. Do you have a link to the Bob file? Also, you never gave a parent link for those files. With only the picture, nothing is known about them. Do you have the website that they are from? Hurricanehink 20:24, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
NVM Bob-now that i look its one of the 1991 hurricane...The 2 old ones: www.marciawoodgallery.com -HurricaneCraze32 20:31, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
Could you be a little more specific? If they are paintings, then they can't be used. Hurricanehink 20:35, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
One is a photo,one is a painting-the flooding is photo.HurricaneCraze32 20:41, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
I mean, where on the site do I go for the picture? Which artist is it under? Chances are, it's not fair use. Hurricanehink 20:47, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
Actually-i couldn't find them on there-you try your luck.HurricaneCraze32 20:52, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
