- "The 1927 Atlantic hurricane season was the first season since 1907 in which every tropical cyclone reached tropical storm intensity. " - source?
- "this storm resulted in between 173 and 192 deaths in Atlantic Canada, mostly from capsized and missing ships offshore" - the season infobox says "184+ deaths". Where is the extra nine coming from? Also, why the uncertainty in the number of deaths?
- The infobox should say 173-192 as well. The uncertainty is because Environment Canada doesn't know the exact toll either.--12george1 (talk) 18:40, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
- [1] - two more TD's you didn't mention
- You could use some more information in the lead, such as when the first and last storms were. It's a little too bare bones.
- On what basis was H1's peak intensity?
- Any more impact for H1 in New England? This is the only major land impacting storm of the year, so it would be good to get some info outside of Canada. If you do that, you can remove sentences like - "On land, Nova Scotia was impacted most significantly." - which don't add much, and which we can infer by the subsequent stats about the effects in Nova Scotia.
- "Flooding also damaged numerous roads and swept away bridges making traveling difficult." - any concrete numbers? You can remove the last three words, again, it's inferred.
- "while located about 190 mi (310 km) east of Sal in the Cape Verde Islands" - you don't have to be so specific. Just say "east of the Cape Verde islands" (note capitalization on "Islands").
- When did H2 become extratropical? (did it?)
- Any idea why H3 moved so slowly? (or intensified so slowly)
- "No property damage occurred in Beaufort, though many tree branches were felled in several neighborhoods of the city." - first part isn't necessary (you don't have to write about events that don't happen).
- For TS 7, I would say that the devastating floods did (how many deaths or property damage), since the storm was tangentially related, and the article is on the short side.
- Why no mention (per the meta data file) that the final storm was likely subtropical? That's good, valid info.
All in all a decent article, and my comments shouldn't take too long to address. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:53, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
