Very impressive and beautiful cyclone, I wonder, does its pressure make it one of the strongest in this basin?

:uarrow: It's the 11th strongest tropical cyclone ever observed in the southwestern Indian Ocean if I did my research correctly.

1. If Bruce did peak today, what frame do you think captured its peak (examples: 18z, 2030z)?

2. What was its pressure at the 21z update on Dec. 21 2013? I can't seem to find any site, other than Best Track, with information for the 21z update.

Thank you for your answers! :) :)

Typically CrazyC83 is the one to do that type of thing but he is likely dealing with a once in a 20 year ice storm.

1) Probably peaked here --> 04S BRUCE 131221 1800 16.3S 81.0E SHEM 140 918 or 21st December at 18:00UTC

Here is an image from about that time.

2) 915 hPa CyclonCane
918 hPa Best Track
910 hPa RSMC La Reunion
912 hPa Wikipedia

I Tried to get as close to your preferred date as possible.

Bruce is weakening now, but it was a very nice storm to track.

Very impressive Bruce that intensified to an Category 5 cyclone! Incredible!

This is probrably one of the strongest pair of TC at the same time occuring with a category 5 and 4 outside of the WPAC!

Thanks for all the updates!
