the latest vortex report.. pressure up 1mb to 1003mb... but i was interested in the HDOB and SFMR data...
A. Time of Center Fix: 3rd day of the month at 22:22:10Z
B. Center Fix Coordinates: 28°04'N 88°04'W (28.07N 88.07W)
D. Estimated (by SFMR or visually) Maximum Surface Wind: 55kts (~ 63.3mph)
Maximum Flight Level Wind: 53kts (~ 61.0mph) in the northeast quadrant at 22:18:10Z
Maximum Flight Level Wind Outbound: 35kts (~ 40.3mph) in the southwest quadrant at 22:23Z
Sea Level Pressure Extrapolation From: 1,500 feet
Appears that the strongest winds are on the NE side... and are pretty strong right now. Looks to me the center is almost exposed on the west and northwest side... ???
