Talk:Meteorological history of Hurricane Gordon

Longest lasting November hurricane?
Hurricane Gordon say so, but the cited link is broken. It could be confirmed using HURDAT. Also check for other records.  Plasticup  T / C  18:00, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * As the author of the storm history in the main Gordon article, yea, HURDAT confirms that Gordon is tied for the longest November tropical cyclone, and I would guess Gordon was a tropical storm for more time. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:09, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Rainfall data
Need rainfall figures for:
 * Nicaragua
 * Jamaica
 * Haiti
 * Cuba
 * Bahamas
 * Florida
 * North Carolina

 * HPC has rainfall for US other than Florida (SE US totals, Mid-Atlantic totals). The NHC storm wallets have plenty of info, though it looks like nothing for Cuba, Bahamas, or Nicaragua. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:14, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks, those are perfect.  Plasticup  T / C  02:27, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * According to the Season Summary there is no such data for Nicaragua, Cuba and the Bahamas so I'll be satisfied with "heavy rainfall"  Plasticup  T / C  16:31, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Useful table modified from List_of_wettest_tropical_cyclones_by_country. Might be worth making a template...  Plasticup  T / C  18:15, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Quick comment
Could the section title Florida, Atlantic, repeat be changed? It seems rather unprofessional. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:16, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, that was meant to be a working title. I am planning on breaking up that section anyway, but I'll put in a better placeholder-name for now.  Plasticup  T / C  02:24, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Also, given the length of the article, I think the lead needs to be at least 2–3 paragraphs. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  20:30, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I have extended it to 2 paragraphs. I'll try to beef it up to 3 when I can.  Plasticup  T / C  01:31, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Funny business near the Bahamas
"By nightfall that day the tropical storm had not only made two landfalls, but had also gained subtropical characteristics" - the subtropical characteristics aren't explained, and there are a lot of other meteorological phenomenon at this point that need to be elaborated upon.

Article name
Considering Gordon was not retired after the 1994 season, I believe we should move this article to Meteorological history of Hurricane Gordon (1994). --  tariq abjotu  07:20, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * This storm has by far the most interesting meteorological history of all the Hurricane Gordons, but I suppose that you are right. I am baffled as to why the name wasn't retired - Gordon dropped half a meter of rain of Haiti and killed over 1000 people.  Plasticup  T / C  11:25, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
