About 35 years ago I had a 285' split hill hopper dredge working Southwest pass at the entrance to the Mississippi River. The bottom fell out of the barometer and the wind was howling. I called the Federal Pilot Station and asked the wind speed. They responded that the last gust was 127 knots (156 mph). I asked what the current reading was. They said they didn't know as the anemometer carried away with the last gust.
