#Hurricane #Melissa's pressure has dropped to 892 mb. That's tied with the Florida Keys Hurricane of 1935 for the 3rd lowest pressure for an Atlantic hurricane on record. Only Wilma (2005) – 882 mb and Gilbert (1988) – 888 mb have been lower. Lower pressure = stronger hurricane. pic.twitter.com/v7X6V0pndi
