[edit] Todo

It is an alright article, but it needs some work. Some basic aspects needed include more lede and metric conversions. However, there is a much more serious problem. The article should use operational and post-analysis data correctly; the article fails to mention that Olga officially (based on best track) became a tropical storm on the 24th. Additionally, it says the extratropical storm formed on the 22nd, which is false. More information on its origins would be nice. The last sentence of the first paragraph of the storm history should be removed, and instead a comparison between operational and best track data, including the uncertainties of its structure, should be added. There's no need to link to the NHC so many times. Writing is awkward in several places, so please give it a nice copyedit. Is there a meteorological reason it executed the double loop? For exact times, if they are even needed in the first place, they should be UTC, not EDT. Fix link to Quicksat. has re-developed at the center - please re-write. It seems that the storm history has a lot of prose, but it doesn't say terribly much; the third paragraph has some redundancies. Preps and impact isn't bad, given how little the storm did. --Hurricanehink (talk) 17:05, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
