Strength[edit]

Why was this one changed to 111 knots? HURDAT says 130.Potapych (talk) 21:08, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Did you traverse the article? The reasoning is supported in the section on the tropical cyclone's meteorological history. Additionally, NOAA officially designates the hurricane as a Category 3 impact in the United States, based on maximum sustained winds at the surface. The HURDAT file incorrectly cites the sustained value from Jupiter Inlet Light as a maximum sustained surface wind. CVW (Talk) 23:49, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
