Default How low does an Hurricane go!

For a tornado, 100 mb according to the 2005 Guiness Book Of Records.

That isn't necessarily the record of course. Getting the equiptment into
a funnel is such a rare thing to do. 100 millibars may be an high! You'd
really need a series over a significant period with more than one
detector -preferably of different types (both or all in agreement of
course.)
