Allen reached 190mph. The storm details say it reached Cat 5 three times. So why does the introduction say "at Category 4 strength or stronger"? Is this a disputed landfall strength as opposed to peak strength or something?

Also ACE page says season had 11/9/2. Which was the other major hurricane? Only Ivan indicates Cat 2; none of the other storms say anything about their peak strength. I think this leaves the impression they are all Cat 1. crandles 13:15, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Added Frances's peak windspeed of 115mph. crandles 17:57, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Images for each storm

Wow, I got lucky. I didn't think the MWR had all of them. Well, there you go, another year down. Hurricanehink 14:09, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Good work. I uploaded 1978 as well. Hurricanehink 01:09, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
I've noticed it. Maybe I will do it tomorrow. juan andrés 02:00, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
By the way, are there any pictures of Allen other than the radar one that can be accepted? I found this one in the same report as the others. It has Allen before its peak intensity. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Hurricane_Allen.JPG Jake52
Sure. Personally, I don't like infrared at all. Hurricanehink 02:21, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
