Hurricane Floyd[edit]

This image is currently featured at Portal:Tropical Cyclones and has an interesting history of its own as it has often been cited as being from hurricanes other than Floyd as noted in Floyd's article. The image is from the NOAA.

Support, although it looks almost like it were generated with a computer and not a satalite. TomStar81 00:48, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Support Striking. I'm pretty sure it is a computer generated image, albeit using satellite data. --Janke | Talk 08:06, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - sorry, but I don't see what distinguishes this photo from the many other hurricane photos there are. In addition, we already have a few hurricane/cyclone photos that are, IMO, more stunning than this one. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 21:44, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose There are many more and better hurrricane images than this, and all are free for the asking. D e nni ☯ 02:42, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Support. I don't think FP hurricanes are yet at the nebula level of saturation. The scale provided by Florida makes this special for me. Mark ¹ 12:48, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Agree with D. enochlau (talk) 15:15, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
