First paragraph, hurricane Michael was not the first category five hurricane to hit the contiguous United States since hurricane Andrew. See list of category five hurricanes https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Category_5_Atlantic_hurricanes 2601:900:8200:A590:E0BD:9786:43D4:6A02 (talk) 22:33, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
Iberian Peninsula
This does not seem accurate - how did Hurricane Michael end up in Europe?
“Michael subsequently strengthened into a powerful extratropical cyclone and eventually impacted the Iberian Peninsula, before dissipating on October 16.“ MA3USNAVY (talk) 12:48, 12 September 2019 (UTC)

At the end of the first paragraph in the "Florida" sub-section, please change
Several F-22 fighters were also damaged, with a replacement value of about $6 billion if repair is not possible.[1][2]
to
Seventeen F-22 fighters were not able to be evacuated from the base; while there were early fears that they had been destroyed,[3] all were able to be flown off the base after minor repairs.[4]
Other points in the article referring to the $6 billion value of fighters left behind at the base should probably be updated, as all are based on outdated references written prior to recovery efforts. In the meantime, to prevent reference errors, also change
<ref name="destroyed US fighter jets" />
in the third paragraph of the article lede to
