• "After approaching North Carolina, Ginny looped to the southwest and approached the Florida coastline within 50 mi (80 km)" — That sounds a bit strange; I think a better wording would be "Ginny looped to the southwest and approached within 50 mi (80 km) of the Florida coastline"
• "The system initially moved generally northward, attaining gale force winds on October 19" — add a hyphen between "gale" and "force"
• "The hurricane continued paralleling the coast of the Southeastern United States" — Sounds a bit strange, using the word "paralleling," but not a big deal.
• "The rainfall was beneficial across the region,[1] ending a 28 day drought.[17]" — add a hyphen between "28" and "day"

That's it! HurricaneFan25 22:50, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I got all of them but the paralleling. I do like that wording, personally, since "paralleling" is the gerund form of "to parallel", which is a perfectly legitimate verb. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 23:06, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fine with me! Passing. HurricaneFan25 23:11, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think the lead should include what year this storm occurred in, because looking at the infobox may not be intuitive. Perhaps:

• Hurricane Ginny of the 1963 Atlantic hurricane season was the latest Atlantic hurricane on record to affect the U.S. state of Maine.
