I'm making a draft about the Effects of Hurricane Laura in Louisiana. It needs some help; will anyone help me with it? Hurricanehuron33 ( talk) 18:18, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
Sure I’ll help and soon I might make a draft about the Effects of Hurricane Delta in the Yucatán Peninsula. Robloxsupersuperhappyface ( talk) 17:44, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
Yeah I was just gonna say that lol Robloxsupersuperhappyface ( talk) 17:38, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
Since Marco became the third hurricane of the season before Laura did, can I insert a few words in this sentence for a sequential hurricane formation but in parenthesis?
The twelfth named storm, fourth hurricane, and first major hurricane of the record-breaking 2020 Atlantic hurricane season
-->
The twelfth named storm, fourth hurricane (
Marco was third), and first major hurricane of the record-breaking 2020 Atlantic hurricane season
It's going to be a minor edit for that. --

@ Cyclonebiskit, Destroyeraa, TornadoLGS, DachshundLover82, Allen2, Jason Rees, Hurricanehuron33, CrazyC83, MarioProtIV, Gummycow, Super Cyclonic Storm Corona, Wikicanada1127, and Hurricaneboy23: So I was rewriting the Meteorological history of Hurricane Laura to make it consistent with the TCR and came across this:
Laura was the strongest hurricane to strike Louisiana since Hurricane Camille of 1969 (which produced category 5 conditions over the southeastern part of the state).
Now I'm kind of curious. I incorporated both the 1856 Last Island hurricane (which is the one we're comparing Laura to) and Hurricane Camille (the one the NHC is comparing Laura to) into the following sentences:
Turning almost due north, Laura made its final landfall near Cameron, Louisiana around 06:00 UTC with 150 mph (240 km/h) winds and a pressure of 939 mbars (27.73 inches). The wind speed made Laura the first Category 4 hurricane to ever hit southwestern Louisiana since the 1856 Last Island hurricane as well as the strongest hurricane to hit the state since Hurricane Camille in 1969 (which produced Category 5 conditions over the southeastern portion of the state).
However, I'm still wondering about whether or not we should keep the record in comparison to the 1956 Last Island, the record in comparison to Camille, or both. For me, its both. Thoughts? ChessEric ( talk · contribs) 01:31, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
@ Jason Rees: Ahhhhhh...I get it now. Thanks for the clarification. Question: would you remove both records or just one of them? ChessEric ( talk · contribs) 21:07, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
