holy cow, 700 mb, can that be right?
Do major hurricanes always have such low pressures?

No, it can't be that bad. It must mean something else, or an error/typo perhaps.
A hurricane with 700 mb pressure would be a Cat 8 or something.

That's the height of the 700 mb level.

I think that the important millibar figure is the one on line H:
H. EXTRAP 944 mb
but I don't know much about all of this weather-reading, so hopefully more knowledgeable folks will let us know for sure.
