 * "striking ... strike" repetitive.
 * Fixed--12george1 (talk) 18:36, 31 August 2021 (UTC)

 * "hurricanes reached major hurricane status" ... according to the SSHS.
 * Done--12george1 (talk) 18:36, 31 August 2021 (UTC)


 * The ACE thing again. Without knowing what this scale is really like, 130 is meaningless.
 * I was hesitant to provide averages because I thought that such info would only available for more recent seasons, have higher ACE totals because of more cyclones and would not be a good representation of the early 20th century. But I found a source saying that the 1911-1920 average per season was 58.7--12george1 (talk) 06:48, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
