Hello, Hurricanehink! I will be reviewing this article tonight. As always, the article you submitted is decent and just short of being worthy of consideration for Good Article status. Here are my concerns:

• "first hurricane of the 1993 Atlantic hurricane season," - I think you should just this back because the reader will already know that this storm happened in 1993 based on the opening sentence. Even simply saying the "first hurricane of the season" would be good.
• "In Buxton, the floods" - Wikilink to Buxton, North Carolina
• "it was located 800 miles (1,300 km) east-northeast" - Abbreviate miles. But don't worry about Miles Lawrence :P

• Disagree here. Per the WP:MOS, primary units need to be spelled out on first occurrence. Auree ^★★ 03:15, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

• "hurricane watch from Cape Romain, South Carolina to Fenwick Island" - Missing a comma
• "A reliable but unofficial wind station reported a gust of 107 mph (172 km/h),[42] at a commercial building also in Buxton.[43] " - I don't think that comma is necessary

Addressed these concerns. Thanks for the review. Auree ^★★ 03:15, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

Everything looks good. I will now pass this article.--12george1 (talk) 16:22, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
