Re: Hurricane Irene Moving Away from Hispaniola

Pressure is down to 974 on latest pass through the center. Annular Hurricanes are extremely rare, btw



That's what threw me off when i first saw the Eye. I've enhanced it locally and I still can't determine if it's annular or not.
The ocean can be seen in my enhancement. But the angle is a bit off.

I seriously doubt Irene is annular at this point due to her fluctuations.

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