[x-y-no]

83 knots at flight level (1525 meters) -- probably a minimal hurricane.

Eye not completely formed - open to the SW

With a 982 pressure yes it's a hurricane!!!!.

I agree 100%, it made it

[dhweather]

The pressure and winds make me think minimal huricane

Also, stronger the storm gets before landfall, better chancve it will hold up during the crossover, espicially if it moves quickly.

so that would be 96mph - we then reduce it by 10%, correct?

which would make it approx 87mph. thus getting fairly close to cat 2, right?
