Since 2am est/11pm pst the system has droped from 1000.0 millibars to what it is now 975 millibars that is a drop of 25 millibars. The officals put RI development/Bombing at 21 millibars for 24 hours. Our friend Dennis has as of now been bombing out/RI.

http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2005/pu ... .005.shtml?


Also at the 5am est update the pressure was 997 millibars. Which would mean a 22 millibar drop. Which it has done this fast.

The NHC POD indicated that an Air-Force plane would be on station now, having taken off at 0315Z... I haven't seen anything from it, so it's wait and see, I suppose...
