Hi JCMLuis, I'd be happy to review this article, I just noticed it's been waiting on one for over a month now. I'll take a good look through Typhoon Jelawat in a bit. Jay Tee⛈️ 21:05, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No. 1a has been addressed. For No. 2a, that is just how the JTWC titled the warning. I messed up on the dissipation date as I overlooked the differences between the JTWC's and JMA's track data, so I corrected the date among other things. There were no other Pineapple Expresses affecting California around early April 2018. So even if the source didn't mention Jelawat, the other sources state that the storm's remnants entered the Pineapple Express and therefore affected California. No. 4 has been addressed as well as No. 6b. luis 💬 23:58, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing as all issues are addressed I feel comfortable passing the article. Good work and thank you for an easy review. Jay Tee⛈️ 00:33, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Rate	Attribute	Review Comment
1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	Just a couple things.. "Immediately thereafter however, it began to quickly weaken amid a sharp increase of wind shear, falling below typhoon strength on March 31." This sentence is worded a bit weirdly, could we change the beginning and say something along the lines of "the storm began to weaken as wind shear sharply increased"? "Pohnpei" is repeated twice in the first sentence of the Met History The first paragraph of the met history needs to be copyedited, most of it's strangely worded and hard to follow. "The system continued to persist until it was last observed on April 2" by whom? When did the JTWC and JMA each stop tracking the cyclone? What's a culvert? (In Effects section) "Jelawat poured around 149 mm (5.87 in) of rainfall upon Yap" better wording needed "was later pronounced dead after being rescued along with two other swimmers" the two other swimmers were pronounced dead? Or just rescued?
	1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.	Typically the "Effects" section of a TC article is named "Preparations and impacts". Otherwise, no issue with the structure
2. Verifiable with no original research:
	2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.	If the JTWC assessed Jelawat as a subtropical storm on April 1, why is FN 25 titled "Tropical Storm Jelawat? FN 5 states that Jelawat dissipated on April 1, not April 2 FN 42 doesn't at all claim or mention Jelawat as the cause of the Pineapple Express Ditto FN 43, could be an unrelated incident Other sources look good, just make sure that the templates are all the same. (i.e., author, title, url, publisher, etc. in that order)
	2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).	Good usage of government sources
	2c. it contains no original research.
	2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.	Didn't find any issues after a quick check
3. Broad in its coverage:
	3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
	3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
	4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.	There were a few lines with words like "only" or "barely". I'd remove those as they limit the neutral wording of the article.
	5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.	No edit warring issues.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
	6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
	6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.	"Typhoon Jelawat during rapid intensification on March 30" rapid intensification is a verb, not a noun "Water vapor imagery of the atmospheric river pouring down rain upon California on April 7" sounds more like a story book verse than a neutral sentence.
	7. Overall assessment.	I'd be happy to pass once above issues are resolved.
