Hurricane Patricia is heading towards Mexico with wind speeds over 200 mph and a central pressure of 880 mb. This is one of the most powerful hurricanes recorded.

 

Does anyone know how low a pressure can possibly go and why?


Data for Hurricane Patricia


Hurricane Wilma had the lowest pressure in the Atlantic at 882 mb and Typhoon Tip in the Pacific at 870 mb.

Hurricane Patricia is doing her best to break all the records and is now predicted to hit at cat5 status!!!

Here is the visible shot.
