Re: Special NHC Statement

I have a question concerning pressure in correlation to windspeed. On this very site, you guys include pressure on the Saffir-Simpson scale, however I have observed that certain systems can very greatly in there pressure, and yet have the same winds. For example, Charley's low pressure of 941 millibars seemed to be quite low for 150 mph winds. Variability to such an extreme degree seems odd.
