The pressure in a hurricane is observed to be 950 hpa. At this time the temperature is 88°F and vapor pressure is 25 hpa. Determine the density of dry air alone, the density of water vapor alone, and actual density of the moist air. Calculate the virtual temperature in the hurricanes. How does the observed temperature compare to the virtual temperature? Compare the density of dry air with the actual density of the moist air in the hurricane, which density is greater?
