[edit] Beryl a Hurricane?

Beryl's winds were measured at 63 knots, which nowadays is rounded up to the nearest 5...65 knots, hurricane strength. Thoughts? -- Hurricane Eric - my dropsonde - archive 22:44, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Good question. I would say in the re-analysis of the Hurricane Database, it will be upgraded. Hurricanehink 22:46, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

What's good about having your own, personal hurricane database is that you can make your own objective descisions. I list Beryl in my database as a hurricane. If Beryl happened today, I'm convinced it would be designated a hurricane. But such a change is not allowed here per the original research policy. -- Hurricane Eric archive -- my dropsonde 02:05, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Because such a decision is not objective. Jdorje 01:53, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

I've found in Ernesto's report that an aircraft found winds around the same as Beryl's, at 62 knots.Mitchazenia V3.0 21:08, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, I couldn't get all of them... It was bound to happen :( 1981 might be similar to this. I'll do that year later. Hurricanehink 20:11, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

I'm really sorry. But work done :) juan andrés 04:27, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] B-Class yet?

Well, here's my work so far:

Lengthened Ernesto.
Added a seasonal activity section.
Referneces added.
Chris has more impact.

Think its ready?Mitchazenia V3.0 21:06, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

{{tl:Cite web}} is needed throughout the entire article. The sections need better storm histories. The whole thing needs a copyedit. Useless things should be trimmed (like mentioning SS1 was the first subtropical storm; it was the only subtropical storm). In general, act as if you were writing individual articles for each storm. That's what's needed for each section; good storm history covering the basics, and impact for everywhere it affected. Research a bit. Hurricanehink (talk) 21:20, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Can you do the cite web-as i am no good at it.Mitchazenia V3.0 21:23, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

You gotta learn :P Hurricanehink (talk) 21:40, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

I've tried. I went poorly.Mitchazenia V3.0 22:00, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Which is why you should experiment and keep trying until it works. Remember, you need to cite every last statement in the entire article. Hurricanehink (talk) 22:08, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
