On the southern quadrant, so I imagine the NE quadrant will be closer to 100-105 knots.

Re: ATL: LARRY - Hurricane - Discussion Update = Is Annular
Pressure quite a bit higher - about 967 mb.
SW quad supports 90 kt, so the NW quad probably has winds around 100 kt.

I would guess they'll find winds a *lot* stronger than 100 in the NW quad

Re: ATL: LARRY - Hurricane - Discussion Update = Is Annular
105 Knots Southern Quad & Lowest Extrapolated is 967 MB

In Theory, the Northern Quad should be between 110 & 120 knots FL winds . . .

~110 kt FL and 100-105 kt SFMR in the N quad. This is still a major.

Re: ATL: LARRY - Hurricane - Discussion Update = Is Annular
Looks like recon supports 100kts which was right on the upper edge of my estimate. Pressure was quite a bit higher than I expected though

109 101

I'd guess NW quad is 105-110

Re: ATL: LARRY - Hurricane - Discussion Update = Is Annular
Pressure was higher than what the NHC had Larry as, but the intensity estimate seems dead on.

Eye drop supports 956mb so much lower than extrap

Actually the drop supports the NHC’s current pressure estimate. Seems that this is another case of the NOAA plane’s extrapolated pressures running way higher than the actual pressure.

What do you mean? Even the Pressure is spot on!

Yup, I concur. Pressure was 957mb on the recon drop.
Fantastic job by the NHC - dead on with both intensity and pressure.

My comment was before I saw the dropsonde data.

NHC sure does do a fantastic job of estimating TC intensity without recon most of the time.

956 mbar per dropsonde. Probably 100-105 when you account for undersampling. Score one for the Dvorak technique.
