Talk:Hurricane Olga

Todo
It is an alright article, but it needs some work. Some basic aspects needed include more lede and metric conversions. However, there is a much more serious problem. The article should use operational and post-analysis data correctly; the article fails to mention that Olga officially (based on best track) became a tropical storm on the 24th. Additionally, it says the extratropical storm formed on the 22nd, which is false. More information on its origins would be nice. The last sentence of the first paragraph of the storm history should be removed, and instead a comparison between operational and best track data, including the uncertainties of its structure, should be added. There's no need to link to the NHC so many times. Writing is awkward in several places, so please give it a nice copyedit. Is there a meteorological reason it executed the double loop? For exact times, if they are even needed in the first place, they should be UTC, not EDT. Fix link to Quicksat. has re-developed at the center - please re-write. It seems that the storm history has a lot of prose, but it doesn't say terribly much; the third paragraph has some redundancies. Preps and impact isn't bad, given how little the storm did. --Hurricanehink ( talk ) 17:05, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Hurricane Teddy
Since hurricane teddy was one of the largest hurricanes, with gale force winds extending " Just before transitioning into an extratropical cyclone, the diameter of gale-force winds measured up to 850 mi (1,370 km) across from northeast to southwest, making Teddy one of the largest Atlantic hurricanes on record.[23] " -Hurricane Teddy Article. So it should be 2nd place which will knock sandy to 3rd place. Link to the NHC hurricane teddy advisory for September 22: https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2020/al20/al202020.fstadv.042.shtml? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ColinMorgan 56 (talk • contribs) 12:43, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Hurricane Sandy
The Tropical Cyclone Report shows that Hurricane Sandy was bigger than Hurricane Olga, Showing that the hurricane at one point had gale force winds extending up to 870 nautical miles (1001 miles), which is bigger than that of Hurricane Olga. -Shift674- (talk) 18:09, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
 * That's true. The NHC's records shows that Sandy had a max gale-force diameter of 1,000 nautical miles, which is equivalent to 1,150 miles or 1,850 kilometers. Even modeling studies done in the aftermath of Sandy reaffirms this size. I'll make the changes.  Light and Dark2000  🌀 (talk) 22:39, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
