"After peaking, Dot slightly weakened, but maintained its Category 4 status for over two days in addition to an unusually large eye spanning as much as 40 mi (65 km) in diameter." - comma before "in addition", maybe?
"All watches and warnings were discontinued on August 7 after Dot weakened below hurricane intensity" - isn't the bigger reason that Dot left the area, is why the warnings were dropped, not necessarily because of the decrease in winds?
I don't think so. All warnings were discontinued on the advisory that weakened Dot to tropical storm status, and at the time it was still impacting Kauai. TheAustinMan(

"Flooding also occurred on Oahu, though along the coast homes were unroofed and cars were damaged by flying projectiles after being subjected to winds estimated at 60 mph (95 km/h)" - why though?
