Caution:
  • According to the author of the core parametric model, the measured pressures observations are more conservative and error prone than wind observations, but the reliability of these data is uncertain.

-The sustained maximum wind speed is less reliable than the values of central pressure and this is probably due to the differences in measurement, not defined by the provider.

  • The most important uncertainty is the radius of the maximum wind speed. The creators were forced to estimate this, since relevant data were not to be found.
