Oh perhaps this should be moved to the tropical forum...then we could have a daily quiz game or something. Whoever wins gets to think up the next set of questions.

That sounds like a good idea. I should have known these would be to easy if I got them correct.

and to add, since you answered them correctly you can make up he next set Otherhd

Ok...will do...in the tropical forum.

What's the name of the most intense tropical cyclone ever recorded on earth...and what was it's central pressure measured by recon aircraft??
(here's a hint...the central pressure was lower than the 888 mb measured in the eye of hurricane Gilbert).

Good luck,
Perry

Congratulations hunter84 ...it was STY Tip in the Western Pacific Ocean in October of 1979.

Oh man Perry, it was on the same quiz I saw today.

True, those questions weren't that hard.
