Figure 3. Selected pressure observations and best track minimum central pressure curve for <strong>Hurricane</strong> Isaac, 21 August – 1<br />

September 2012. Advanced Dvorak Technique estimates represent the Current Intensity at the nominal observation<br />

time. AMSU intensity estimates are from the Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies technique. KZC<br />

P-W refers to pressure estimates derived using the Knaff-Zehr-Courtney pressure-wind relationship. Dashed vertical lines<br />

correspond to 0000 UTC, and solid vertical lines correspond to landfalls.<br />
