Re: Dean Makes Landfall in Mexico as a Category 5 Hurricane
Tue Aug 21 2007 09:18 PM

I just did some research and found a government research publication that states that the 150m eyewall dropsonde to surface adjustment is 85%.

That being the case, 178kt winds becomes 160kt / 184mph surface winds.

This is assuming of course that the 178kt measurement wasn't in an embedded tornado.
