Re: Dean Makes Landfall in Mexico as a Category 5 Hurricane

Quote:

Latest info at 8:00 Central Time by the Mexican Meteorological Service reports a central pressure of 935 and winds of 127 mph.



Is this a measurement from the ground, and in that case, were there any measurements near Chetumal prior/during/after landfall?

Also, does anyone think there is a chance that Dean could maintain a circulation over the central mountains of Mexico and emerge in the E. Pacific? I guess it partly depends how strong the storm will get at the second landfall.

When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center.
