Tropical Storm Agatha has now killed 102 (at last check) people, which qualifies it for [[List of Pacific hurricanes#Storms causing 100 or more deaths|listing]] at the Pacific hurricane list. I've taken the liberty of adding it there. Agatha is now the deadliest Pacific hurricane since [[Hurricane Pauline|Pauline]]. I'd love to be wrong, but I'm doubtful fewer than three of the 40+ missing people are alive. Once their inevitable deaths become official, Agatha will move past Ismael as the sixth-deadliest Pacific hurricane. Should the worst happen and more than (at least) 235 die, Agatha will be the fifth-deadliest Pacific hurricane, qualifying it for listing on [[:Template:Deadliest Pacific hurricanes|the template]].

[http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/americas/05/31/honduras.storm.emergency/index.html?hpt=C2 CNN Article] - This article shows a picture of a monstrous sinkhole caused by the storm. Now none of this is new, i live in florida, and it happens all the time, but the fact that it happened in the middle of a heavy urban area is probably important to at least mention in the article, even just to highlight the other dangers besides landslides and flooding of storms such as Agatha. |

Importance
Once the final death toll and damages come in, should the article be high in importance? --Yueof theNorth 00:45, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
