Assessment
[edit]It looks decent to me, but I don't know exactly how assessments are done with tropical cyclone articles, so if someone would see what needs to be changed to improve this article to B class, that would be helpful. Dustin (talk) 21:07, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

Drive by review~
- General
- Citation #26 sadly passed away on October 5.
- RIP.
- Meteorological history
With the development of deep convection, the system was classified Subtropical Storm Ana at 00:00 UTC on May 8, while situated about 170 mi (275 km) to the south-southeast of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Due to its involvement with the upper trough, as well as its large wind field, the system was not considered fully tropical.
– I feel like this would work better if the info was reshuffled to explain the reasoning for the subtropical classification in one sitting (right now it's split with the convection mentioned separate from everything else). Somehow working in a link or piped link to subtropical cyclone is preferable too.
- I have absolutely no idea how to reword this without making it three times as clunky, so any suggestions would be appreciated. Threw in the link in the meantime...
Late on May 8, Ana attained its peak maximum sustained winds of 60 mph (95 km/h)...
– Minimum pressure needs to be worked into the peak somewhere.
- Done.
...Ana made landfall along the coast of South Carolina, between Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach, at around 6:00 am EDT on May 10.
– Random usage of EDT instead of UTC. Could be kept so long as you prioritize UTC and are consistent with having both, but your choice which.
- Also done.
...continuing to produce a small area of gale-force winds.
– Gales are not reflected in the best track...not sure how to handle this discrepancy though since it's not touched upon in the TCR. Thoughts?
- Removed that since it didn't really add much to the narrative.
- Impact and records
Immediately upon the storm's formation...
– Date needed here, you're paying for drinks though
- *groan*
Rip currents from the storm pulled a swimmer underwater for over ten minutes off Oak Island; the man died of his injuries the next day.
– No issue here...I'm just impressed he was able to survive until the next day after being underwater that long.
An enjoyable read start to finish. Above concerns are all minor and this should be an easy fix. Placing on hold for now. ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 18:32, 1 November 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review! Replies above... still one or two things left to work out. – Juliancolton | Talk 14:46, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
- Good enough for me. The subtropical bit is more nitpicky and not a big issue for GA status so I'll just overlook it. Passing the article. ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 13:28, 8 November 2015 (UTC)

ERROR: This was not the earliest landfall on record?
[edit]This article says "becoming the earliest U.S. landfalling system on record." but that record is held by the Groundhog Day 1952 Tropical Storm, unless I'm mistaken. [1] --Weathermatrix (talk) 16:54, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
- @Weathermatrix: The article already addresses this. Reanalysis determined that the 1952 system did not make landfall as a TC. – Juliancolton | Talk 18:09, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
