WHAT THE EDITOR DID

The second model checked the writer's draft against the same sources and changed it before publication. Struck words were in the draft; underlined words are its corrections.

WHAT IT FLAGGED editor revise: One location detail overstates the Axios title and can be corrected by deleting the unsupported location from the sentence. - "Hurricane Isaias formed in the Gulf of Mexico": Axios says Isaias formed and was expected to rapidly intensify in the Gulf, but the title does not specifically say it formed in the Gulf of Mexico.
