 * Symbol question.svg The article is a nice GA, no issues like lack of sources or copyvio detected. ALT2 looks most interesting to me. But what does "one of the most intense thunderstorms" mean? Do you want to say the region has witnessed one of the most terrible thunderstorms ever? Which one? Or does it experience terrible ones in general?

 * According to the article and the source, they mentioned that it has one of the highest frequency of lightning and has one of the highest convective cloud tops in the world. In that source, these observations indicate a more intense thunderstorm. What they are trying to say is that on average, it witnesses terrible ones in general.

 * Then let us reword the hook like this:
 * ALT3: ... that the Pampas, one of the main climatic regions of Argentina, witness some of the most intense thunderstorms in the world?  Sainsf  &lt;^&gt; Talk all words 04:29, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
 * ALT3 is more concise than ALT2 so it is better. Ssbbplayer (talk) 04:43, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol voting keep.svg for ALT3. Though according to the article 'The Pampas' are plural. Therefore, I changed 'witnesses' to 'witness'. Everything else about this DYK seems to check out just fine. Looks good to go! —♦♦ AMBER  (ЯʘCK)  20:30, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
