Olga may have set a record
Olga is the deadliest off-season Atlantic storm since at least the 1930's and possibly the deadliest in recorded history. I thought I read somewhere that the 1934? May storm that hit Hispaniola killed 80 people but could find no record of it. This should definately be looked into. -- § Hurricane E  RIC  archive 15:03, 14 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Can't find anything. I think you could be right. Juliancolton (talk) 16:53, 14 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Nah, it doesn't have the record. NHC says the May storm in 1948 killed 80 in the Dominican Republic. --Hurricanehink ( talk ) 17:36, 14 December 2007 (UTC)


 * It's certainly the deadliest since then. That should be noted. We appear to have a rather glaring oversight in the off-season storms list on the Notable 'canes page as the '48 storm is missing. I'm gonna go fix it. -- § Hurricane E  RIC  archive 18:02, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Remnants
Can we put something in the article about the remnants? It held SOME convection across the carribean, and made landfall on both The tip of the yucatan and probably florida. I think it is worthy of note. If someone thinks this is a good idea, please add it. -Winter123 (talk) 18:57, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
 * NHC says Olga's remnants merged into a cold front. Is Olga forecasted to play a role in a Nor'easter? Additionally, Olga's remnants make landfall on the tip of Yucatán Peninsula. Marabats (talk) 17:38, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
 * From my view, the remnants had merged with the large winter storm which dumped heavy snow across the Northeast and Midwest and produced several tornadoes in Florida and Georgia, and that is the main weather system now. CrazyC83 (talk) 18:20, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
 * look at this "Most likely, Olga was a tropical storm last night [december 15] prior to reaching Florida given the buoys reports of 30- to 40-knot sustained winds.". Juliancolton (talk) 19:57, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * This topic has come up on the tropical storms mailing list too. It will be interested to see how it is handled after the fact.  I'll be making a rainfall graphic for Florida for Olga sometime soon.  Thegreatdr (talk) 05:40, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Can i suggest that we wait untill the TCR is Released untill we add infomation about Olga after the NHC Downgraded it to a low Jason Rees (talk) 15:50, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I agree, the TCR will tell us the tale. To make things more interesting, the system it merged with also has an article...so whatever the TCR determines will determine where the proper placement for the Southeast (especially Florida) will be - in this article or in the winter storm one. CrazyC83 (talk) 04:22, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
 * The most relevant information from the TC rainfall article was added to the page. It makes no conclusions from the data...it just presents the data within the page, similar to the Tropical Storm Erin (2007) page.  TPC botched its surface analyses during this time frame, which affected its tropical weather discussions. Thegreatdr (talk) 01:32, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
 * NHC's report agrees mostly with the TC rainfall page concerning Olga's later stages near Florida. =)  Thegreatdr (talk) 22:25, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Yep, Olga was indeed a separate entity when it entered Florida (but not when it left), so what happened up to that point in central Florida belongs here. The other impacts in the Southeast are due to the winter storm, not Olga, and belong there. CrazyC83 (talk) 14:19, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
