message: Is there a source for the bit about the Hurricane Hunters investigating the storm?  I find it very unlikely that the U.S. would send an aircraft all the way across the Atlantic to investigate a storm that had no chance of affecting the U.S.  Perhaps it was an aircraft out of the Azores and not a true Hurricane Hunter that investigated?  --Holderca1 16:11, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Looking at the image of Vince, it looks the type of hurricane described by Annular hurricane.  Is this possible? Reub2000 11:53, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Annular hurricane? 

message: The NHC had decided not to declare the system a tropical cyclone because the water temperature was too low for one to normally develop. Is the meaning here that it was too cold to develop in a normal fashion or that it was colder than the temperatures in which a storm normally would develop. I'm guessing the latter, but can anyone verify this? Thanks. Rockhopper10r 23:47, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: While Vince did get off to a subtropical start, the transition to tropical cyclone shortly thereafter makes me think that the development of Vince was fairly normal.  But with hurricanes, normal is somewhat relative.  I'd say the latter option. 68.115.4.162 22:20, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Smallest Hurricane??

message: It mentions that Alberto from 1988 formed further north than Vince, but from what I can tell from the 1988 Atlantic hurricane season article, it didn't.  I don't know which Alberto that is supposed to talk about, but someone needs to fix it. Jamie|C  22:05, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Alberto became a tropical storm further north than Vince. That's probably it. Hurricanehink 22:19, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The table several pages up lists the farthest-north-forming storms.  There are a large number of storms that formed (reached TS strength) further north than vince.  Alberto is the farthest-north-forming one since 1860. — jdorje (talk) 23:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Apparently, there was a hurricane on record in 1588 that hit the Spanish Armada, which would definetly make it the northernmost hurricane ever since the Armada at the time was slightly northwest of Ireland. The referr about the hurricane is here. Scroll down to 2.6, the return to spain.The Spanish Armada Hurricane
:::I changed the wording slightly to make it less ambiguous Jamie|C 
:There is no evidence that that was a hurricane.  It is more likely it was an extratropical storm (e.g., Hurricane Maria) or a so-called European windstorm.  Additionally, Vince was not the northernmost hurricane, so this discussion isn't really relevant.  Tropical storms have struck Ireland before but they don't form there. — jdorje (talk) 02:26, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: But theres no evidence that it was an extratropical storm ether, since it occured in 1588, it possbile to be a freak-late season hurricane that strayed off its course. Storm05 14:57, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Uh, climatology is probably the biggest evidence. Given that no storm was there in recorded history is probably a big hint. It probably was a simple extratropical storm. Hurricanehink (talk) 15:06, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Climatology recordes did not exist in 1588 (and any climatology records before the modern age are specutive) and you cant that there was no storm in recorded history because it happened in 1588 before people even track (and any records at that time might have been lost over time) and it occured in late July or early August which is possbily that this storm might have been a cape verde type hurricane that became extratropical. Storm05 17:02, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with you on the last part. It could have once been a hurricane that became extratropical. However, I doubt, looking at the climatology of the last 150 years, that a tropical system could exist in the English Channel. Hurricanehink (talk) 17:15, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it really unlikely that this was a tropical system at the time it struck the Spanish, (not in the Channel Hink, but further north near Ireland), but that does not mean it wasn't tropical in origin. We are talking about 1588 here, which was near the start of the Little Ice Age, I would suspect northern waters to be slightly colder than is presently the case. A source from the period calling it a hurricane in no way implies it was a tropical cyclone, it only suggests hurricane strength winds were present. Another example is the Great Storm of 1987 which was commonly called a "hurricane"; it was quite clearly non-tropical, though it did produce hurricane-force gusts.--Nilfanion (talk) 17:30, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Why was the update tag added to this article? The last paragraph of the storm history summarizes the TCR. TimL 21:17, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I added it because glancing at the storm history has many numbers that are incorrect based on the TCR.  All that's needed is a review of the storm history, comparing to the TCR info. — jdorje (talk) 21:46, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  I don't see what you are talking about and am removing the tag. TimL 04:07, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: For starters, it doesn't even mention how, or when, the storm actually formed. I reverted it to put it back up. Hurricanehink 12:35, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I uploaded an interesting radar image from the TCR which shows the cyclonic circulation of vince just off the coast of Portugal. Anyone think it should go in the article? TimL 18:29, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Ineresting Radar Image

message: Rewriting this one was nasty, the storm history was awful as it stood; in my biased opinion it is much better now. I think that (the thumbnail of) the radar pic should be made smaller, it looks a bit too big as it stands - maybe crop the top half of it? Apart from that... more copyediting, ("which defies general thought..."- needs sourcing) and perhaps some press reports?--Nilfanion 23:32, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Sorry, if this is the wrong place to put my question, please excuse my inexperience. I've seen that this article is already a good article, so is there a process similar to the good article process to bring it up to an A-Class article? 65.8.35.224 19:14, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  A-Class article process? 

message: 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) 04:29, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: GA Sweeps Review: Pass

message: The Spanish version of this article (which you would expect to be good but isn't) mentions that "el rastro del sistema, cada vez más debilitado, prosiguió hasta la costa del mediterráneo". I haven't seen a source that tracks the remnants to the Mediterranean, but that would be an interesting addition to the storm history. Also todo: expand storm history, find any "aftermath" if it exists, and copyedit. Plasticup T/C 03:01, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Trying to sleep, but found this:  It explains that la Ronda de Poniente is and talks about its construction - which was interrupted by Vince.

They can't both be correct. 86.136.250.154 (talk) 23:53, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Off the top of my head, I'm pretty sure that it's Ginger, but HURDAT would have the answer. Could be a matter of Tropical Storm vs Hurricane or something subtle like that. Plasticup T/C 00:19, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
