Great job on the article. It goes into really good depth. I appreciated this little factoid -

In an effort to communicate storm dangers to the public, Bermuda's government held a public press conference, activated the Emergency Measures Organisation's emergency broadcast FM radio station, and sent updates to users of a new official mobile app called Tree Frog, introduced just months prior.

There's not much I noticed that stood out. Here's what I got:

  • Why does the infobox say 9/26 as end date?
  • " 65 miles (100 km)" - link units? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  • "In Bermuda, the progressive motion of Humberto combined with low astronomical tides limited rainfall and coastal flooding" - could you simplify?
  • L.F. Wade International Airport, Royal Naval Dockyard, and the Bermuda Weather Service compound all suffered considerable damage. - extra word?
  • "Mid- and upper-level flow associated with the earlier trough continued to affect Humberto, shearing deep convection toward the north, decoupling the storm's low- and mid-level centers, and driving dry air into the storm." - could you make this more basic at first (Humberto struggled to intensify because X)? It's right, just a bit technical, which is fine if you ease the readers into it. JMHO
  • "As conditions deteriorated, the airport closed at 3 pm ADT on September 18" - you use UTC throughout the rest of the article. Later on, when you say "noon local time", this seems fine. I'm not sure if you need a specific note about time. Considering how good the article was, this is more of a nitpick.
  • - great factoid, and a great way of placing the storm at its place in history
  • Impact section three = header for the Bahamas?
  • "between 7 pm and 10 pm on September 18" - local time? Have a note that all Bermuda times are local? I'm not sure what's right ._.
  • " Estimates of the number of buildings left with damaged roofs ranged from 500 to 600" --> "An estimated 500–600 buildings sustained roof damage..." Just an suggested way of rewriting it.
  • I suggest you start the aftermath by indicating it's Bermuda you're talking about
