Lead

  • For a storm that caused a lot of damage across the Caribbean and the United States, the first sentence makes it look like a generic storm.
  • A total of 59 homes were damaged or destroyed, causing significant harm to Haiti's agricultural industry. Did the homes being damaged affect the industry? Also, it says 59 but in the Impact section, it states that The storm wrecked 929 homes and damaged 3,058 others...
  • I would incorporate some of the aftermath into the lead section.

Meteorological history

  • The hurricane subsequently traversed the Jamaica Channel, bringing deadly floods to both Jamaica and Haiti Is the last part needed?
  • The powerful storm soon struck Granma Province, Cuba, as a Category 4 hurricane early on July 8; violent winds battered the province and caused extensive damage. Ditto.

Preparations, impact, and aftermath

  • Got nothing for preparations.
  • To prevent damage to the damage of electric generation stations, power was halted nationwide... Remove "damage of".
  • The hurricane damaged Dennis also affected the agriculture industry... Needs to be reworded.
  • The high waves destroyed sea turtle's nests, with 61 nests destroyed in Pinellas County. to The high waves destroyed 61 sea turtle nests in Pinellas County.
  • The floodaters breached a dam near Fayetteville and another in Tift County... change "floodaters" to floodwaters.
  • Got nothing for aftermath.

References

  • All sources seem reliable. Will be doing a spotcheck later.
    • Spotcheck: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 13, 14
      • 6, 7, and 8 do not say that Dennis crossed Grenada, but 1 says that it made landfall there.
  • Still need to check the format and if there is any OR.
