Re: Hanna Approaches Carolinas, Ike Remains Major

Pressure is relative to the surrounding environment. Hence why when Wilma got all the way to 882 MBs, her wind speed wasn't nearing 200 mph because the surrounding environment of pressure was much lower than normal.
Now I am not sure how Hannah's environment is relative to surrounding pressures but her lack of a tight core and very large windfield make her lower pressure not as conducive to increasing windspeed.
