Guys... minor fluctuations. Insignificant in the long run. Storm will NOT be below a 4. Even if it does weaken... which I don't think it will... the wind is far less significant than the location, as the flooding of New Orleans is the big story. The storm is strengthening. Not weaking. Recon pilot said they found 145 kt flight level winds. That's appx. 125 kt at surface. One last word: LOOK AT THE PRESSURE NOT THE WINDS. They cannot always "find" the winds that the pressure corresponds to. We need pressure to rise. The drop in wind speed does not always correspond to a weakening.
