Yeah, I think the storm seems to have stabilized for now Chris.

I also agree with the OP.  I'm always talking about the need to focus on the pressure as the measure of intensity.  If we have a low pressure system, I don't care if the winds aren't *that* bad, because it usually means we're just gonna have a lot more area affected by the wind and surge.

Just another reason I think Saffir/Simpson should be tweaked.
