According to an email I received today from Christopher Landsea ... there were about a dozen storms that warranted further investigation and submitted to the National Hurricane Center's Best Track Committee ...
Also the complete Donna reanalysis wind project was recently completed ...

1851-1910 reanalysis project just got a new twist ...

Wow, does that mean more new storms. That is cool how a storm just pops into the picture. I just hope they get the 1911-1940 done by January. I really can't wait for 2005, though. I hope they add a lot of storms from my lifetime. Will they change through 2003, though? I think there were more storms this year than they said...

There will almost surely be no changes to the official record for the most recent seasons. The record gets changed primarily because of one of two reasons: 1) because new data have become available that were not considered originally, or 2) because standards for interpreting data have changed over time. Since the recent historical record already was generated using current standards, changes are unlikely.

The 1910's, 1920's and 1930's are currently being addressed (and I cannot wait until the 1935 Labor Day Hurricane reanalysis is complete, since I STRONGLY believe that the Labor Day Hurricane was MUCH STRONGER ... more like 165 kts ... and possibly even stronger that that.
FWIW, I also believe Isabel was stronger than 140 kts as well since RECON never got in when satellite imagery suggested that Isabel has weakened slightly, but RECON still found 160 mph winds ...
Isabel at Peak Intensity ...
RECON arrived approx. at the time, Isabel had this eye...
