![]() | Text and/or other creative content from this version of 2005 Atlantic hurricane season was copied or moved into Hurricane Ophelia (2005) with this edit on 21:26, September 15, 2005. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. |
Shouldn't this be a seperate article. The storm seems to be another big one. Information about this could be very informative.-- Ali Karbassi 02:26, September 13, 2005 (UTC)
I see little reason for this to be an article; we don't have enough info to fill one yet. Ophelia will pass on and this article will be obsolete. I'll redirect it back to the season article when the storm has passed. -- Golbez 21:28, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
I moved it here because information is starting to come in and the main page is filling up too fast - although since it is not at all certain that the name will be retired, based on precedent from previous first-time notable unretired storms, if the name is not retired, it should be renamed Hurricane Ophelia (2005) (permanent name) with Hurricane Ophelia redirecting until a disambiguation is necessary. CrazyC83 21:30, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
I agree there's enough data for a separate article (though I think it should be Hurricane Ophelia (2005), but that can be resolved later). See [1] for other Ophelia tropical cyclones. There should be a disambiguation. Jdorje 22:05, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
I strongly object to a page move. While Ophelia is certainly not as important as Emily or Katrina, it has never been used before to name a hurricane and thus there is no point in moving it to Hurricane Ophelia (2005) because no hurricane other than this one is taking the spot of Hurricane Ophelia. Yes the name will likely be used again in 2011, but that is so far away in time we shouldn't worry about it now, and we don't even know if the Ophelia in 2011 would deserve its own article. -- Revolución ( talk) 20:12, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
Damage estimates coming in: estimate on insured damage in North Carolina is about $800 million, so total damage (usually almost equal to insured damage) will likely come in around $1.5 billion. CrazyC83 01:34, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
Within this article is a reference to an external source stating that a State of Emergency was declared by President Bush. President Bush does not declare States of Emergency within the individual states. The Governor declares the state of emergency while the President declares the disaster zone. Can someone confirm this for me before I change it? Thanks.. Rob110178
The warnings are done a bit differently in Canada. The actual hurricane or tropical storm watch or warning will be issued for ALL forecast areas expected to be affected by the storm. For example - the current TS Watch includes all of Nova Scotia west of a line from Truro to Ecum Secum (Halifax County eastern boundary). However, to differentiate coastal and inland warnings, they should be separate as if it was an NHC warning - with the coastal areas mentioned directly on the list alongside the NHC coastal warnings and with the inland areas separately with the title (Inland) in parentheses - i.e. (Inland) hurricane warning - since it is not officially mentioned but should be differentiated. This becomes especially notable if a storm comes up the eastern seaboard and affects, say, southern Ontario - which is not a coastal area at all - as a tropical storm (or in a rare case, a hurricane). CrazyC83 19:47, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
Should we move this to Hurricane Ophelia (2005) (a redirect I created) with Hurricane Ophelia redirecting until a disambiguation might be needed (since there is nowhere else to logically redirect the Ophelia page with no disambiguation)? After all, I can't see the name being retired... CrazyC83 02:40, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
I see it has been moved. IMO that was the right decision and it should stay that way for now, although if it is retired by some surprise, it should be moved back to Hurricane Ophelia... CrazyC83 23:22, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
[3] is a source about the unmanned flight into Hurricane Ophelia. I don't know whether most of the information should be put into this article or some other article like a page connected to Aerosonde. AySz88^ - ^ 04:34, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
$1.6 billion in damages is far greater than Hurricane Alex and (more notably) Hurricane Emily. Ophelia has a surprisingly good shot at being retired; unless Emily is upgraded to Cat 5, I would put the odds at about even for either being retired. - Cuivienen 05:09, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
Good, focused article. Needs some impact pictures. Jdorje 22:49, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
Why did you remove the damage photo?, I followed the rules when uploading it even stated where the photo came from. Storm05 18:31, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

The requested comments were taken care of and a rewording of the lead section brought the article into the GA status. Cheers, Lincher 20:42, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
i need to know who the author of the article was for a school assignment.
can anyone tell me the the author and when it was written? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 58.162.86.32 ( talk) 21:11, 10 March 2007 (UTC).
If not done so already, these should be included in the article. Hurricanehink ( talk) 17:21, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
As part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the GA criteria. I'm specifically going over all of the "Meteorology and atmospheric sciences" articles. I believe the article currently meets the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article. I have made several minor corrections throughout the article. Altogether the article is well-written and is still in great shape after its passing in 2006. Continue to improve the article making sure all new information is properly sourced and neutral. It would also be beneficial to go through the article and update all of the access dates of the inline citations and fix any dead links. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I have updated the article history to reflect this review. Happy editing! -- Nehrams2020 ( talk) 04:17, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
