List of North Carolina hurricanes (2000–present)

 * Nominator(s): – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 03:57, 3 February 2010 (UTC) and Hurricanehink

This was largely split from List of North Carolina hurricanes (1980–1999) after it got too long, but I've updated the content, added a suitable lead, and fixed any formatting issues. Now that this article is published, it needs to be featured in order to prevent the featured topic from being demoted. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 03:57, 3 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - Check External Links and Alt Text. Afro  ( Its More Than a Feeling ) - Afkatk 22:24, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Should be sorted now. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 20:29, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * For the 1st picture I count 4 segments not 2. Afro  ( Its More Than a Feeling ) - Afkatk 23:10, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * No, there are two main segments and a bit of rogue sand between them. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 00:59, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok then, shouldn't the Rogue sand between them be mentioned. Afro  ( Its More Than a Feeling ) - Afkatk 10:23, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Comments from 
 * "... while May and November are tired for the least active months" – Typo.
 * Fixed. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 14:56, 9 February 2010 (UTC)


 * "The first storm to impact the state during the period was Hurricane Florence in September 2000, and the most recent is Hurricane Ida in 2009." – is this change in tense appropriate?
 * I'd say so. "The most recent was" doesn't flow right. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 14:56, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I'd have to disagree. I'll wait for a third opinion (if consensus is against me on this point I'll support).  Jujutacular  T · C 22:26, 9 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Hurricane Charley – source says it caused $25 million in damage in NC, not 50 million.
 * Adjusted. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 14:56, 9 February 2010 (UTC)


 * This source is used for Hurricane Bertha, but it discusses an event in Nevada.
 * Yeah, those links are dynamic and change regularly. Fixed that one. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 14:56, 9 February 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm concerned with scope: is there a set time for this list to end and a new one to begin? Previous intervals for NC are: Pre-1900, 1900–1949, 1950–1979, and 1980–1999.
 * As soon as it gets too long to reasonably navigate (around 2015, barring any 2005-like seasons in the meantime.) – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 14:56, 9 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Closing note I have archived this nomination as unsuccessful, as more than a month has passed since this FLC was submitted, there is no consensus to promote and the length of FLC has put off reviewers. Unfortunately, I have had to fail several old, stale FLCs because of this. Feel free to re-submit this FLC in 5 or 6 days after ensuring that the previous issues have been resolved.
