Irene's winds
|
I checked yesterday's dropsonde reports from Irene.
I don't find any winds above 12 kts in the last 150 meters of dropsonde fall. That would be the last 492 feet of fall.
Deep Layer Mean winds were less than 13 knots.
I didn't check all of the reports. Mainly the first few and last few drops.
OBS 1-6 and 20-23.
Those reports, 36 hours old, would seem to back up the ship reports of light winds and seas.
