• "Hurricane Carrie was the deadliest Atlantic tropical cyclone on record to not make landfall." - Well, since this fact does not appear in the body of the article, there needs to be a citation for it here. Alternatively, you could find a different opening sentence.

 Done - Changed opening to its original state. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 15:15, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

• "across and a minimum pressure of 945 mbar (hPa; 27.91 inHg)." - You should mention that this was the lowest in relation to Carrie.

 Done - Added in. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 15:15, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

• Why did Carrie re-curve sharply to the northeast on September 17? Hint: you can find that answer in The Weather And Circulation Of September 1957.

 Done - The article already states "However, as it curved and accelerated eastward in response to a second trough of low pressure..." which is the same thing explained in the Weather and Circulation publication. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 15:15, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

• "areas from Block Island south to Savannah, Georgia on September 7" - Are Block Island and Savannah in the same state?

 Done - Added Rhode Island. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 15:15, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

• "a slight chance of being affected by the storm,[6] but chances decreased after the hurricane curved northwards" - Is there any way you can cut out one of the chance/chances.

 Done - Changed the latter to 'possibilities.' TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 15:15, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

• "forecast to potentially impact Bermuda, schools were closed in preparation for Carrie's impact," - Similar issue here, except the key word this time is "impact".

 Done - Removed the latter. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 15:15, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

• Why no locations for References #1, #2, #17, and #19?

 Done - Added Miami, Florida to all. As for #2 it was a template so I edited the template to display the location. TheAustinMan^{(Talk·Works)} 15:15, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

• That should be it for now.--12george1 (talk) 05:41, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
