Is this buoy just broken because it doesn't make sense to me...Buoy 42040 is located 8 miles from the eye. Hurricane force winds extend 105 miles from center. Yet winds at this buoy are at 43 knots with 58 knot guts.
It doesn't make sense to me. Does anyone have an explanation? The only thing I can think of is that it's inside the eye right now, but the graph associated with the buoy doesn't seem to correlate with that. And does it really have 43 knot winds in the eye? My memory of Hugo was that it was dead calm when the eye passed overhead.
