The meteorologists have already declaired it the strongest hurricane in recorded history, and YES, most of that is based upon the millibar pressure. However, Wilma currently has 170+ MPH winds, so you obviously haven't been paying much attention anyway.
You're just repeating things that have already been said.
1. I already said that it's the lowest pressure hurricane but that does not = the strongest.
2. It's already been stated that it has 175 mile per hour wind, no one aruged that.
Wind spread is the area in which a hurricane or tropical storm covers. The hurricane force winds for Wilma don't spread further than 50 miles.
Wilma fortunately cause much flood damage because it has such a small wind spread, although it could slow down which would increase the flood damage.
Stop trying to pretend like you know more than you do and getting an attitude.
