Talk:1970 Atlantic hurricane season

Tropical Storm Felice
I went through tons of old reports and all pictures of Felice available were of it over Texas/Oklahoma. Jake52 My talk


 * Here's a PDF on how the storm redeveloped over southeastern Oklahoma, similar to Erin this year. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 03:01, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Atlantic tropical systems of 1970
This is the breakdown of the various TD assignments for 1970. Depending on how you count them, there are between 17 and 23 tropical systems that year. You can see the complications. The original numbering system included the Eastern Pacific, so there are gaps in the numbering. NHC found additional systems after the fact, which were never in the original numbering scheme. For some unknown reason, TDs were left out after the fact, though there is no documentation down there concerning this curiosity. Thegreatdr (talk) 13:55, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

1970 Hurricane Season in Fiction
I've recently come across a crime thriller entitled Summer of Storms by Judith Kelman.

It opens with a description of a fictional category 5 Hurricane called Queenie striking New York city on the 4th of August 1970. The fury of the storm covers up a murder.

The author also describes the Hurricane season Queenie is part of. Prior to Queenie there had been 16 Tropical Storms. 12 of them became Hurricanes, of those 6 were above category 3.

I'm not sure if this should be mentioned as a section of this article or if it should form part of the article on Tropical cyclones in popular culture.Graham1973 (talk) 13:32, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned references in 1970 Atlantic hurricane season
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 1970 Atlantic hurricane season's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "mwr": From Tropical Depression Nineteen (1970):  From Hurricane Able (1951):  From List of retired Atlantic hurricane names: 1979 Monthly Weather Review From Tropical Storm Felice:  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 17:31, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Tropical Depression Counts in 1970
Tropical Depression 19 is considered one of the worst disasters. It occurred during the 1970 Atlantic Hurricane season. This season curiously only included 10 storms that made it to depression including two unnamed hurricanes (nine and ten) that occurred later. Where do the total numbers for depression, hurricanes, etc come from? This single piece of evidence argues they are made up. Autkm (talk) 19:30, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I got it. The number came from here. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:35, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
