Hurricane Gustav Once Again

The Hurricane Hunters have now found surface pressure of 978.4 mb, indicating the pressure has dropped another 5 mb in the last 2 hours. The HH also found surface winds of 80-90 mph, but only in one small area. The NHC has decided to go with 75 mph, at least upgrading the system. The latest votrex message said 980 mb with 90 mph winds! We will likely see stronger winds at the 5 pm advisory, if not updated again before.
