You added very little. The death toll was 5, not 24. The damage total, when inflated, is $62 million, nowhere near the total you gave. The storm is still not notable enough for its own article. Why not add the impact section to the season summary???

Also if you add information, you need to add the reference inline to the article. Otherwise how are people supposed to know where the info came from? You can't expect someone to read through all of the external links to find the one place that says the storm caused 24 rather than 5 deaths. —

I'd like to see some more sources, as its coverage on Canada is lacking. "Although total damage estimates are univaliable, it is estimated that damages could surpass $10 million (1962 USD) dollars" - That makes no sense. Although I know it's from the preliminary report, damage reports likely have been released in the 45 years since then. This is why some more research is needed. Typos need to be fixed, and the overall writing is mediocre. It's a decent start, however. --♬♩

"A total of 7.71 inches (196 mm) of precipitation fell in Portland, Maine within 24 hours, 3.13 inches (80 mm) of it in only 6 hours. As a result, this was the highest 24 hour rainfall total for Portland, which stood until Hurricane Bob in 1991.[7]" should IMO be changed to "A total of 7.71 inches (196 mm) of precipitation fell in Portland, Maine within 24 hours, 3.13 inches (80 mm) of which fell in only 6 hours. Subsequently, Hurricane Daisy set a then-record the highest 24 hour rainfall total for Portland; however, this recorded was broken during Hurricane Bob in 1991.[7]"

The writing is getting choppy here. "Also, lobster fishing ships suffered from heavy losses due to Daisy.[2] Boat damages were severe, with hundreds of small boats destroyed, and many larger boats damaged.[9] " should IMO be revised to "Damages to boats were severe; hundreds of small boats were destroyedwhile many larger boats were damaged.[9] In addition, the lobster industry suffered heavy losses from the system. "

"Also, a pier was washed away in the high surf.[4] Total damage from wave and tide was $600,000.[9] " "Also" should be revised to "In addition," IMO.
