 * "the first such storm on record to affect those areas." so, prior to 1966 no storm ever affected the Bahamas, Caribbean, Florida, and Mexico. YE  Pacific   Hurricane  04:19, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Correct. Inez was the first to affect all of those areas. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * "since the 1920s" which storm in the twenties? YE  Pacific   Hurricane  04:19, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * The newspaper didn't say. If I had to guess, they actually meant a hurricane in 1935 that killed thousands. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * "As many as 1,000 people were killed" No need for the first three words IMO, they don't add any value. YE  Pacific   Hurricane  04:19, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * But it wasn't exactly 1,000, since Haiti's total is unknown. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * "There, 125,000 people were forced to evacuate, and there were three deaths and $20 million in damage." I think you are entering a phase where you say "there" a zillion times, just change one to "throughout the island" or something like that. YE  Pacific   Hurricane  04:19, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Oops :/ Thanks. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * "84,000 peopl" don't start a sentence with a number. YE  Pacific   Hurricane  04:19, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Was curious if someone would catch that :P --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * " tropical depression in the annual tropical cyclone summary on September 18. " annual? do you mean daily? YE  Pacific   Hurricane  04:19, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * No, the MWR covers all of 1966. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * "a Category 3 on the Saffir-Simpson scale." a Category 3 what? A typhoon? YE  Pacific   Hurricane
 * Given the article is on Hurricane Inez, and there's a link, I don't think I have to specify that it was clearly a volcano :P --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * " The eye emerged into the Windward Passage near Léogâne, although severely weakened; the pressure rose to 987 mbar (29.1 inHg),[3] and the winds decreased to 90 mph (150 km/h) over land." I'd do one or two things here, split up the sentences and/or move the "over land" to before the semicolon. YE  Pacific   Hurricane  04:19, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * K. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * "Throughout the country, Inez killed about 100 people,[" why is this not exact? Did people go IDK how many ppl died do to Inez, let's just say 100. If they did, I understand. YE  Pacific   Hurricane  04:19, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Dominican Republic was pretty poor back then, so they didn't have an exact total. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * "Inez was considered a "dry hurricane" oxymoron. What is a "dry hurricane"? One with little rain and a lot of wind? YE  Pacific   Hurricane
 * Yea, it had much less rain than usual, and, as for the rest of the sentence, that led to more salt spray than usual. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * "The Dominican Republic Air Force" link it if it has an article? YE  Pacific   Hurricane  04:19, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Yep, added. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
