[edit] Landfall point

Major Wade's account of the wind shift makes it sound likely the storm actually made landfall north of Tampa. Can this be included in the article or must it be stated in another source in so many words?User:Mikereichold | User_talk:Mikereichold 18:38, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

I believe there are two sources stating this. As long as it is referenced, it can be included. Thegreatdr 21:32, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] More info

I've added info on the storm from the west coast. An east coast perspective and information about the effect on Cedar Key would be nice.User:Mikereichold | User_talk:Mikereichold 22:35, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Reorganized the article. It should be good enough for B class now. Thegreatdr 21:31, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources

Fuller was the source for most of the article. I've tried to cite other sources where there information falls in the article.User:Mikereichold | User_talk:Mikereichold 17:49, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
