[edit] Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited List of Atlantic hurricanes in the 18th century, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page St. Thomas (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

[edit] Tropical Storms/Hurricanes
- Where does Tropical Storm end and Hurricane start in km/h?, per the project page there seems to be a dispute between the WMO and NHC.Jason Rees (talk) 01:31, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
- Oh ok wow - i just thought it was just going a typo so please do dig up your notes and then get back to me/the project soon :).Jason Rees (talk) 03:23, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
- Interesting, i presume all these changes to the SSHS have to be ratified by the WMO, when it meets later this year though. Right?Jason Rees (talk) 21:10, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Tropical Storm Cindy (1993) PR rainfall
Hey, DR. I have a question: in your report, the peak total for Cindy in Puerto Rico is 4.60" at Puerto Real; however, a report from the USGS that was archived by the NHC mentions the peak total as being 5.54" near Cerrillos River. I currently mention both in the article, but is there anything else we could? Thanks for your help! Auree ★ 05:44, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
- NCDC is not all inclusive nor all knowing, so it may not have that site. I'll look up the link, and if I can find coordinates for the site, I'll remap Cindy's rainfall sometime in the next week. Thegreatdr (talk) 21:50, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Hurricane Paul 1982
Hey there DR! I was wondering if there was a reason that this rainfall map for Hurricane Paul in 1982 was never published. I'm currently writing an article for List of New Mexico hurricanes, and that map seems to indicate that Paul caused some decent rainfall in New Mexico (3 inches in the one spot). Is this another government conspiracy I should stay out of, like Andrew's discrepancy in Louisiana? :P --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:29, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- No. hehehe. I probably was waiting to include the Mexican contribution in order to create a page for it. It apparently led to severe flooding in southeast Mexico and central America while in its initial tropical depression stage. Thegreatdr (talk) 03:45, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- Yea, thousands of deaths in El Salvador. :( --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:46, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
[edit] HURDAT discrepancy
I've discovered a discrepancy for the numbering of the storm with the track shown here. At the article, there was once a storm numbered as #4, although it didn't exist in HURDAT - that edit remained in the history for at least four years (I didn't check which edit added it). I couldn't find the storm as "#9" - which was the original number used in the article for that storm - and the track does say it was #8. HURDAT calls it #8 too, but the MWR for that year says it was #9. So does this HURDAT document, which is confusing] - HURDAT has just entered the 1940s' reanalysis (AFAIK), and in that document, I don't see any storms that were added for 1947. I'm hoping you can clear this up, though if you can't, that's fine! Thanks in advance. :) Hurricanefan25 (talk · contribs) 22:02, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
