Super-typhoon Tip. I believe it got down to 878 hPa or 876 hPa with estimated sustained winds in excess of 230 mph. This isn’t even close. There was one a few years back, Haiyan, also in the western Pacific that came close but didn’t get there. I think it got down to 886 hPa and sustained winds of 225 mph.

I meant in Atlantic I know there been typhoons crazy strong.

Just saw a tweet by Phillip Klotzbch. Since 1950 3 Atlantic hurricanes have had max winds stronger than Dorians of 180 mph. Allen (1980 190) Gilbert (1988 185) and Wilma 2005 (2005 185). Does not mention pressure.

Hurricane Wilma, 2005, got down to 882 hPa (885 hPa, maybe?). Somewhere in there. Again, not even close right now lol

Recon just made another pass. Down to 910 mb.

Hurricane watches up for Florida.

by **amugs** Sun Sep 01, 2019 11:28 am

Down to 913 and wind speed found at 202 mph Jesus H !!

How many actually made landfall at that strength though?
This thing is right the shore now and still strengthening.

by **billg315** Sun Sep 01, 2019 12:05 pm

Wow. 180 mph gusts to 205 mph. Currently the 5th strongest Atlantic basin hurricane of all-time according to a list I just saw. Not many structures on the Bahamas won’t be wiped out or severely damaged by that.

by **SoulSingMG** Sun Sep 01, 2019 12:38 pm

907mb

by **amugs** Sun Sep 01, 2019 12:50 pm

Pressure down to 906 and winds up to 175 knts whichnis 202 mph

by **amugs** Sun Sep 01, 2019 12:54 pm

Wind gusts are 225 mph
Storm surge is 20-25'
Highest pint of Grand Bahama elevation is 48'
Put 30-50' waves onto and you have just annihilation.
This is a sheer humanity disaster for these people.
Anyone see how the gfs tries to phase him by us? A few hours earlier and oh boy!!

Definitely something to watch, the Gfs has been coming closer each run with that interaction. 12z CMC is very close as well

by **jmanley32** Sun Sep 01, 2019 1:10 pm

Well officially 185mph, 911mb, why if they are finding these numbers is he not upgraded to those? Now I gotta look we could have a potential storm now?

by **jmanley32** Sun Sep 01, 2019 1:11 pm

Also how much does the fact that the GFS pressure initializes almost 50mb too high? I would imagine this could change model track from reality etc?

by **jmanley32** Sun Sep 01, 2019 1:15 pm

Wow CMC shifted north west alot towards us brings heavy rains to cape cod and even some outer rains here, but again cmc initializes almost 70mb too high.

by **amugs** Sun Sep 01, 2019 1:26 pm

BREAKING: #HurricaneDorian has made landfall on Elbow Cay in the Abacos of the northwest Bahamas. Maximum sustained winds have increased to 185 mph.

CAT 5 built homes are being destroyed on the island from reports.
