Re: Another Look

Dropsonde in the NE eyewall measured a surface pressure of 943 mb. A 42 mb difference between the eye and eyewall would be quite extreme, so there may be a QC issue on the surface pressure (which was extrapolated). On the other hand, the observed wind speeds are consistent with a storm of that intensity.
