Re: Gustav a Major Hurricane, Hanna Moving West

I noticed on the last vortex msg that the Temp outside the eye was 10c and inside the eye was 22c. The dewpoint outside the eye was 6c. Thats a HUGE amount of energy coming out of this storm. I dont think Katrina had that kind of temp difference.
EDIT...I looked in the archives and when Katrina had a pressure of 908mb the temp inside the eye was 25c and outside was 13c and the outside dewpoint was 17c. Perhaps one of the mets can explain this (cause I'm not even that sure of how significant it is)
