Fig. 1. Skew T- Log P diagram of the eye sounding in Eastern Pacific Hurricane Olivia at 2123 UTC on 24 September 1994. Isotherms slope upward to the right; dry adiabats slope upward to the left; moist adiabats are nearly vertical curving to the left. Solid and dashed curves denote temperature and dewpoint respectively. The smaller dots denote saturation points computed for the dry air above the inversion, and the two larger dots temperature observed at the innermost saturated point as the aircraft passed through the eyewall.
