Cool presentations! I especially liked Dr. Wurman's PDF... Some VERY interesting things in there... I'm particularly amazed by his May 29th 2004 Geary OK radar imagery... Measuring NON-TORNADIC winds of 179mph at 7m above ground (and 195mph at 12m) is incredible. Well, I suppose it's not necessarily "non-tornadic", but it doesn't seem to be a true tornado, so it may be more of a tornadocyclone or mesocyclone-on-the-ground type of deal. Whatever the case, it's amazing. It was also neat to see DOW imagery from forest fires and hurricanes. Interesting to read about his deep skepticism regarding hurricane wind speeds (e.g. winds in Ivan compared to F0, MAYBE F1, tornadoes, certainly not supportive of the >100mph winds thought to be present).
