 * I can't do the work since there are not the track maps juan andrés 01:48, 28 January 2006 (UTC).
 * Ooh, sorry to hear. Hopefully Jdorje will be back soon. Where's he been for so long? Hurricanehink 02:12, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't know. Have you heard about hurricane Cindy? Really impressive news. juan andrés 02:59, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm. Yea, I did hear about Cindy, and was quite pleased as well. I had a feeling, and can only wait until Emily's comes out. Hurricanehink 03:14, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Finally done! juan andrés 04:57, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Strongest storm
Greta is the strongest storm, at 947 mbar. Ella achieved slightly higher wind, but much higher pressure (958 mbar). Pressure data on Ella is complete; Greta's data is incomplete but the 947 mbar is from peak strength. &mdash; jdorje (talk) 06:39, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Todo
Unlike most 1950-2004 articles I don't think this one has enough content to be B-class. A little more detail per storm would be desirable. &mdash; jdorje (talk) 06:39, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Discrepancies between HURDAT and individual storm/season summaries for Hope and Irma
I am hoping this issue will be addressed when the updated HURDAT info from 1931-1935 is released next month. It appears to be a simple oversight, as the season summary was the last of these items released, which shows the ST track portions. Thegreatdr (talk) 22:19, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
 * The change has been approved, so the Hope/Irma issue should be fixed the next time HURDAT is updated. As should Ella's missing final point.  Thegreatdr (talk) 17:11, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Awesome :) I gotta say, I'm really glad they're willing to fix certain issues before they get to those storms, like Beryl 82 oddly having non-divisible by 5 knots. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 17:46, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * If it is simple and does not involve re-analysis, the committee is quick to fix items like these. However, if I were to ask for most of Amy (1975)'s track to become ST outside of two days, as the storm report actually reads, that would probably have to wait until the hurricane reanalysis reaches that year.  I could always write it up whenever...but it will be years until it is looked at by the committee in that case.  The changes/additions I've proposed for the 1950s were written up eight years ago, in 2004.  And so it goes.  Thegreatdr (talk) 17:50, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Yea, or calling Debbie 61 extratropical per its report. If you don't mind me asking (and I know it's rather off-topic, but I don't think people will mind too much), what sort of proposed 1950s changes were there? Anything major/interesting? --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 18:01, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * You've seen them already. They're in the 1944-1953 writeup that went online a year or two ago, by Hagen.  Thegreatdr (talk) 19:42, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Ooh, ok! That makes sense. Any estimate when they'll get to the 44-53 era? Think they'd do 36-40 by next year, 41-45 by 2014, and then the rest by 2015? Or what? I'm always interested in your behind-the-scenes info. You should start a blog :P --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:52, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I know nothing for sure, but the recent pattern suggests 5 years per year would be tackled. They're planning to go all the way to the current day, so at this pace, it would still take another 18 years.  Thegreatdr (talk) 20:08, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
