That's why I said "Read page 218 AND look at Table 7"... :lol: :wink:


actually, you didnt.


Actually, I did. From my original post:
In their sample, they found 17 hurricanes which had annular characteristics, but did not meet their definition of annular for one reason of another. Some of the storms you mentioned fell in this group. Read page 218 and look at Table 6 in that paper.


I added the bold to show that I DID say "Read page 218 and look at Table 6 in that paper". This is all beside the point, however, which was that 17 cyclones were found to have annular characteristics, but only 5 (or 6, I forget which now LOL) were found to be competely annular and fitting of their characteristics.

What I think a lot of people remember about storms being annular is someone else who doesn't know what they are talking about calling a certain storm annular.
