  • Ref for 1934 bit?
  • A total of 11 tropical depressions from 1943 are listed in the Atlantic hurricane database, with two additional tropical depressions. - this is confusing
  • In November, the Belize hurricane caused extensive impact in several coastal communities of Belize. - redundant saying Belize hurricane and Belize. It wasn't known as that anyway until 4 decades later :P
  • TS 1
  • reintensify further just feels wrong
  • Text and infobox don't match regarding top winds
  • A lack of available weather ships in the region due to World War II, no ships documented the tropical cyclone. - grammar? Missing word?
  • In Texas, the tropical cyclone caused light rainfall, damaging local cotton crops, and strong gusts in the Rio Grande Valley. - poor symmetry of words
  • H2
  • The hurricane initially weakened quickly after moving inland. - no need for initially and quickly
  • H3 - mention where it dissipated (New Mexico IIRC). Also, fix the conversion for the rainfall. You have inch (m), but it is (mm) elsewhere.
  • H4
  • The third storm of the season
  • Shortly thereafter, while the storm passed about 90 mi (140 km) east of Bermuda – its closest approach to the island – the cyclone peaked with maximum sustained winds of 110 mph (175 km/h).[4] The hurricane produced sustained winds of 64 mph (103 km/h) on the island. - find a better way to split this info between the two sentences
  • TS 6 - Analysis by the Hurricane Research Division - no other section mentions this, so it feels out of place.
  • TS 7 - Several hours later, the system began to move northwestward. - did you mean NE?
  • Other systems - The depression moved rapidly northwestward toward Louisiana, but transitioned into an extratropical cyclone by the following day. - I don't understand the but here.

A decent article overall, shouldn't be hard to improve. Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 01:26, 26 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
