I don't know if this is really important, but schools in St. Lucie County, Florida are on early release for Tuesday August 29th, and are closed on Wednesday August 30th. Casey14 18:58, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
This should be its own article: a tropical storm/hurricane about to hit Jamaica and the NWS projecting a US landfall as a CAT3 hurricane? I'm a mergist and I say its time for the new article. Cwolfsheep 16:08, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

The people said on WP:VP/T said that Wikimedia is prepared. Latest track, according to The Weather Channel (I have Satellite TV) indicates it may affect the Wikimedia locale. Martial Law 06:57, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
If I've missed anything, please fix or add it... I'm a regular reader but not a regular contributor to the hurricane season pages so I tried to do the best I could to update with the 5am and 5:04am advisories. - JVG 10:33, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
Significant figures dictates that 20 inches only signifies one or two significant digits, and thus the converted figure should be 500 mm (at the most precise, 510 mm). 508 is unfounded precision, the NHC isnt saying that they can expect exactly 508 mm, they are saying isolated amounts around 500 mm are possible. This amount of accuracy means nothing.
I may be rambling a bit, but i'll go get my first cup of coffee and see if i have a response :) - Runningonbrains 16:26, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

I'd like to see proof from professional oceanographers that this is an actual hurricane. As we know, hurricanes have to kill people or they're storms. Hurricane Katrina 22:12, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
...What? Here's a link from one of the NHC discussions that says it was a hurricane. How do you have the audacity to think that hurricanes have to kill people or they're storms. As we know, tropical storms can kill storms, while hurricanes can remain over the open waters. Hurricanehink ( talk) 22:16, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
In meteorology, a tropical cyclone (or tropical storm, typhoon, or hurricane, depending on strength and location) is a type of low-pressure system which generally forms in the tropics. While they can be highly destructive, tropical cyclones are an important part of the atmospheric circulation system, which moves heat from the equatorial region toward the higher latitudes. [1] [2] dposse 03:38, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
All foolishness aside, I'll be interested to see what they conclude in the TCR about Ernesto's strength. I have a suspicion that the NHC jumped the gun in naming it a hurricane in the Caribbean, where it never (in any imagery I saw) managed to achieve an eye or sub-990-mb pressures; in my estimation it could be lowered to a TS in those frames. Yet I also think Ernesto may have (like Gaston) briefly reached hurricane strength before landfall in north carolina - it (briefly) achieved an eye-like formation (perhaps not quite an eye), a pressure of 988 mbar, and caused 74 mph wind gusts measured along an east-facing beach (consistent with stronger hurricane-force sustained winds while the storm was at sea). — jdorje ( talk) 05:30, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
What is the hype about this thing? It's raining outside right now.. But the most I've seen so far was a downpour about an hour or so ago. This thing is being made-out as if it were an actual hurricane. - 24.92.41.95 22:36, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
The only reason this storm is getting so much attention is that it affects the United States and because of all the activity from Hurricane seasons 2004 and 2005. Ernesto was actually a hurricane back when it was near Haiti and never became one since. Tropical storm strength is "routine". However, it's nice to see heightened awareness. KyuuA4 13:20, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
Now I have been tracking this storm by the minute since its invest page... Ernesto has been one of the hardest storms to forecast in a long time. There were questions about which one of the 2004 or 2005 storms would it imitate. Answer: NONE. Tropical Storm Ernesto proved to our team and many others of how cocky we had gotten when predicting storms. I called a Cat. 2 with a direct hit to Tampa. Then others said, No! It is going to go up the east coast of Fla and miss hitting the Sunshine state completely. If anyone can prove to me that they predicted this storm correctly with strength and location. I will give them everything I make off of the footage.
Also, don't say this storm is nothing, because that's not true. Ernesto still has life in the Atlantic to live. If I was to say where and when it will hit, that would be speculation.
However, for a dose of humor, (please don't anyone take this offensively...intentions are clean, promise) Do you suppose that this is a sign from God about immigration?? ALBERTO, ERNESTO, both storms genetated from the Latin region of the world and both hit FLORIDA. StormChaser666 16:52, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
i was very dismayed to find that this article was so vague in terms of the systems' strength at landfall and other things. people really ought to include those figures in the article. 67.172.61.222 19:39, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
We have a big problem with Ernesto that will likely be ironed out in the TCR. NHC dropped the system to a tropical depression while 45-50 knot winds were lashing the coastal Mid-Atlantic states. It is extremely unlikely that the final track will drop the winds of Ernesto below gale force. There will be coordination w/NHC concerning this issue. Thegreatdr 20:20, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
The spreadsheet for Ernesto is being updated daily using a couple of different websites now listed as references in the article. One of the references changes daily at around 1 pm, which the other gets purged at the beginning of every month. Thegreatdr 18:50, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
Can someone please add all the HPC advisories on Ernesto to its track? That's what we did with Alberto until the TCR. íslenskur fellibylur #12 (samtal) 12:46, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
I added 2 direct fatalities in Virginia (from tree felled by wind = direct, from traffic accidents related to Ernesto = indirect, yes?), but I realized the infobox # seemed to count them before I added them, so am I missing a death or two in the text?
Also, a suggestion that unsourced data should be {{fact}}'d for awhile if without time/desire to research it, as long as it's not patent nonsense. TransUtopian 14:38, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
CNN said this morning that the power outages extended from North Carolina into New York, areas around Buffalo particulary. - 24.92.41.95 15:30, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
These should be included in the article. Hurricanehink ( talk) 17:22, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
New York and New Jersey were also affected by Ernesto with both Rain and Wind.

I need to revise the first statement so here is the revised version of the statement. New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania were also affected by Ernesto with both Rain and Wind. So Sorry I had to revise the statement.

This was one of those storms that no one really got hammered in, but there was damage across a very wide area covering 30 degrees of latitude, 8 countries, 18 states and 5 provinces... CrazyC83 03:54, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
The article needs to be updated and more info is needed. Storm05 18:35, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Umm, NC was Ernie's strongest landfall but I have to hunt to find the states name even mentioned in this article. It talks about Virginia and Florida in detail but there is next to nothing about what went on in North Carolina. -- § Hurricane E RIC archive 21:26, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Reviewer: 12george1 ( talk) 21:22, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for the review. I probably should've double-checked it first, considering it's been a work in process for several years. Anywho, I got most of the things. There wasn't an explanation I could find for why Ernesto didn't weaken over Florida, only that it did remain a TS. If I had to guess, it would be since it was so disorganized and so close to warm waters. As for $500 million, the TCR didn't help, since they only gave an overall damage breakdown. As for the semicolon in the damage thing, I'm not sure about that. I always use just a colon, so consistency with other articles would be good. I think $4 million is small enough that it doesn't need inflation, particularly in the context of that sentence. Also, be sure to check the project talk page specifically about inflation. Other than that, I think I got everything. --♫ Hurricanehink ( talk) 02:27, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
