Under the section "Meterological History", there is a table titled "Most intense landfalling tropical cyclones in the United States". This table erroneously contains Typhoon Yutu, which did not hit the United States at all, but was in the Phillippines. I suggest removing this entry, as it is highly misleading, and renumbering the table. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.162.144.34 (talk) 20:47, 8 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Typhoon Yutu struck Tinian and Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands, which are a commonwealth of the United States--12george1 (talk) 03:17, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Hurricanehink, Cyclonebiskit, Chicdat, SMB99thx, Jasper Deng, and Destroyeraa: anyone interested in making Effects of Hurricane Andrew in Louisiana? Significant impacts (17 dead, $1.5 billion in damages)and significant information(like 7 paragraphs). HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 15:21, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You probably should've pinged the person who got the article featured. Unless there is significant information that can be added to this featured article, I oppose. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 19:11, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@HurricaneTracker495: I started a sandbox for it back in 2012. I abandoned it for a while and then did a bit more work on it around the time I nominated this article for FA. But I haven't worked on it since May 2017. Most of the information already in there can be found in the Storm Data publication from August 1992. But there's certainly more info out there. Anyway, I do think the information justifies the existence of such a subarticle. But I've abandoned that sandbox twice now and have other things on wiki and IRL that I would like to tend to.--12george1 (talk) 05:58, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@12george1: I'll probably work on that for you and maybe get the article published, and I'll abandon Charley Florida for now. --HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 22:41, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Since there are disambiguation pages at most ambiguous tropical storm names (I figured Tropical Storm Andrew would be one), someone might interpret the redirect as an indication that there weren't any other storms by this name. 49.198.51.54 (talk) 08:06, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
