• "Hurricane Newton was one of the the two storms that was intercepted Hurricane Hunter flights" — I think you mean "that was intercepted by Hurricane Hunter flights"
• Yeah. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
• "A tropical depression formed near Central America on September 18." — There's a bit of pre-tropical cyclonegenisis in the MH that you could put before that
  • It's only the lead, and that genesis stuff happens all the time in the EPAC. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
• "The hurricane reached its peak intensity at about 85 mph (145 km/h)" — Rewrite this as "the hurricane reached its peak winds of about 85 mph (145 km/h)"
  • huh? YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
• "However, the remnants of Newton" — remove "however"
  • Meh, ok. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}
• "The origins of Newton are from an area of disturbed weather" — Personally, I feel this sounds a bit strange. "Newton originated from an area of disturbed weather"
• "...noted the threat high waves, storm surge, and flooding." — That always happens, don't feel that that's needed
  • Not so much in the EPAC, I've never seen the EPHC note stuff like that before.YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:46, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• "Damage in Mexico was minor with roofs being ripped off and blowing down trees and utility poles." — The roofs blew down trees and utility poles? :P
  • Fixed. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:46, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• "...for parts of western Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona as Newton, along with a cold front over the Great Plains..." — either mention the cold front first or last
  • First. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 21:46, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• "Across Kansas City, Missouri, 20,000 customers were without power since heavy rainfall downed power lines." This sounds awkward as the last sentence of the impact section. IMO, putting the highest rainfall of the associated cold front/Newton last is better
  • AFAIK, you are suppose to put meto statistics first.
    • Disagree, but I'll accept that. HurricaneFan25 22:10, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Use consistent date formats for the refs
