Default How low does a Hurricane go!
What is the Lowest pressure ever recorded in the the eye of a hurricane, and
where can i find a barogram of a passing storm?

The 870 mb of Typhoon Tip was, as far as I know, obtained by dropsonde and
occurred over the ocean. I'm not certain what the lowest pressure actually
recorded on a barometer/barograph is. It may well be the 888 mb of Hurricane
Gilbert (1988) in Jamaica.
