Talk:Effects of Hurricane Jeanne in the Mid-Atlantic region

Todo

 * Inflation, damage pics, was there any more impact from the flooding? Electrocutions, stalled cars, # of flooded houses?
 * How did that death occur in Virginia?
 * "Another building and several vehicles were also moved in the flood" - a building was moved in the flood?
 * " Further north In West Virginia, slightly less rainfall was recorded, with a state maxima of 4.99 in (127 mm) being recorded in Union", watch out for redundancies.
 * What did the widespread flooding in Delaware do?
 * "Forty people had to be rescue from a bus along the White Clay Creek after the creek crested at .59 ft (0.18 m) above flood-stage" - did I read that right? A bus required rescue because of a few inches of flooding? Something's not quite right.
 * Forty people were also rescued from a bus that became stranded along the White Clay Creek. The White Clay Creek at Newark was above its 13 foot flood stage from 447 p.m. EDT on the 28th through 911 a.m. EDT on the 29th. It crested at 13.59 feet at 930 p.m. EDT on the 28th.

 * "A strong F2 tornado touched down in the state, injuring five people and leaving $1 million in damages. The tornado touched down in northern New Castle County and tracked for 5 mi (8.0 km) and generated winds up to 130 mph (210 km/h)" Find some way to re-arrange that to avoid the redundancy.
 * "triggering flash flooding throughout the state" - just for clarification, is it "triggering flash flood warnings", or "producing flash flooding"?
 * I think Maryland should go before Delaware, since it's further south. I assume you forgot Pennsylavania, too.
 * Fixed the order. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 18:40, 6 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Are there plans to do a New England article? Given it was offshore by that point, there probably isn't too much in New England, in which case that would-be article could be included in this article for a broader "Effects of Hurricane Jeanne in the northeast United States".
 * Probably best to include it in this article; however, overall the only state that really sustained damage from Jeanne in New England was in Connecticut. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 18:40, 6 April 2010 (UTC)


 * One last thing, it could use some preparations, such as in the background section. Was such impact anticipated? Were any people advised to evacuate before the storm's arrival? Were there any precautions taken, overall?
 * Google News is not cooperating with me at the moment so I've been struggling to obtain news reports which usually have a wealth of preperation info. Hopefully I can find some in the coming days. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 18:40, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

All in all, pretty good. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 14:47, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
