Pressure: 29.76 in / 1007.7 hPa (Falling)

Can't recall when I've seen it this low, except maybe when Frances and Jean went through.

Any reports on other west coast Florida areas?

1005 millibars according to the barometer in my office in Venice (~60 miles south of Tampa). I never pay any attention, though, so I don't know what's normal. :lol:

That's one of the reasons stated by some of the experts why Cat 4/5 is such a distinct possibility with Katrina - generally low pressure environment all around allowing for the storm to go deeper.
