Due to an error on September 7th and 8th in part of the NHC's ATCF system, our new model system in alpha testing needs to be recoded to handle errors better that occur on the NHC's end. (It will likely be very unstable for at least several days.) Our current model system is operating normally. - 3:45PM EDT on 9/8

Note: "Max Wnd" is the highest wind reported in the "Significant Wind Levels" section. It could occur at any level, including the surface. The time noted is the launch time of the sonde. Surface wind will be unavailable if the sonde did not reach the surface. Extrapolated surface pressures that are noted as such in the dropsonde report are noted above.
