Re: Hanna Landfall at the SC/NC Border, Ike Going West Southwest Florida Threat Less Likely

Next mission in Ike: pressure down to around 955 hPa and highest surface wind 105 kt. No vortex data message until now! Will be interesting to hear about the state of the eyewall!




According to Weather Underground's recon graphic... the mission beginning 9/6/08 14:13z (about an hour ago) found maximum surface winds of 140mph, and lowest pressure of 956.1mb.

IF this information is at all accurate, the 11am intensity forecast can be thrown out the window.
