" and curved westward to reach peak winds of 70 mph (110 km/h)." two qualms. YEPacificHurricane
I find it ironic that last night when you wanted Ingird to stay in km/h, you out an article to be in mph when it's suppsoe to be in km/h. Please fix. YEPacificHurricane15:38, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The 70 mph was JTWC. The 50 kt for IMD, but that's unknown, as IMD only listed it as a severe cyclonic storm, which has winds of 50 kt. They didn't list the peak winds. That's why I didn't list the peak IMD winds in the MH. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:55, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I added 1-min for the JTWC peak. Given that I don't actually mention the IMD winds (per above), I didn't feel the need to clarify w/ a note. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:55, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"The cyclone was the strongest on record to make landfall on the Arabian Peninsula, until Cyclone Gonu surpassed it in 2007" is it still the 2nd strongest overall? You say that in the lead. Also, the second part of the sentence is awkward. I'd say something like. "At that time, the cyclone was the strongest on record to make landfall on the Arabian Peninsula, but was surpassed by Cyclone Gonu 2007." 15:38, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure Phet might have surpassed it, but I can't get a source to outright say it. I changed the wording of the lede, since I'm not sure if it's still 2nd strongest. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:55, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"High swell up to 7 metres (23 ft) impacted the MV Strathmeigle and several drilling rigs shut down" abbreviate meters please to be consistent with the rest of the article. YEPacificHurricane15:38, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"The military base in Masirah raised a Category 3 warning on the morning of June 12," wtf is "a Category 3 warning"
Some sort of preparations, probably similar to condition of readiness by the US military. But, as the source doesn't explain it, I'm not sure. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:55, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Rain totals were significant, with a total of 482.3 millimetres (18.99 in) falling 40 kilometres (25 mi) northeast of Salalah.[6] A station on Masirah Island reported reported 430.6 millimetres (16.95 in) in 24 hours, more than six times the average annual precipitation there." again with the not abbreviating units.
