Now that I think about it. The 104 kt wind in the SE Quad. Could be from a convective tower/ spot wind gust.
No you generally see the Highest wind speeds in the NE Quadrant, in the Northern Hemisphere. Or the Right Front Quadrant, relative to the storm's heading. In this case, with Katrina heading WSW, the NW Quad...might have the highest winds. With an elongated, "open NNW", eyewall one would think that the winds wouldn't be maxed out in that area.

Coincidentally. I pulled up a Vortex report from Hurricane Andrew. At roughly the same longitude (83.6W), Andrew was at ( 25.8N) or about 80-90 miles further North.
Andrew's pressure was extrapolated to 946mbclose!, and the winds (line 'F') were 98kts with a(line 'Q') Max Flt Lvl wind of 121kts, taken 1 hr and 24min earlier.
