Superfly saw the peak flight level wind around the same time I did. 6 hours of data is a Lot of data. They transmit anywhere from every 30 seconds to every 60 seconds. So that 's 60-120 lines of data per hour. Something like 7-12 columns per line so it's not something you can look at for very long. Your eyes get tired and the numbers start running together. The vortex message carries the summation of the data. With No exception that I can think of. I imagine the folks at NHC and Hurricane Research Division have real time displays of what the data is representing. It's just that watching the data on a display for 6 hours would be like watching TV or a movie for 6 hours straight. I guess it's part of their job, and more interesting to them. |
