Hi! I will be reviewing this article for GA status, and should have the full review up soon. Dana boomer (talk) 19:14, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
In the second paragraph of the lead, you say "Arlene dropped heavy rains totaling up to as it moved" I think you're missing a number here...
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

One tiny little issue with some missing info in a sentence, and the article will be good to go for GA. I'm placing the article on hold until this issue can be fixed. Drop me a note here or on my talk page if you have any questions. Dana boomer (talk) 19:35, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I've added that it totaled over two feet in localized areas. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 19:40, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
