Re: Hurricane Dolly Approaches Brownsville

latest vortex from AF Recon.. continues to show a 1mb per hr drop.. down to 982mb.. one thing i have noticed in the recon mission... the temperature at flight level at 10,000ft. is changing with time... almost a 10 deg. difference now between inside and outside the center/eyewall... at 10kft. NOAA plane made a pass through at about the same time the AF recon plane did a 180 and appears to be headed home. GPS dropsonde from NOAA plane recorded a Sea Surface Temperature: 28.0°C in the western eyewall
