Does a hurricane or a tornado have the lowest pressure?

Some of the lowest atmospheric pressures ever recorded at ground level or sea level were recorded in tornadoes and hurricanes. The lowest sea level pressure recorded at any United States-certified observing station was 892 millibars (26.34"), recorded at Matecumbe Key, Florida on September 2, 1935 in the "Labor Day Hurricane". The world record goes to Typhoon Tip when, on August of 1979, it recorded a central pressure of 870 millibars (25.69").It is not known how low pressure in a tornado can get because very few measurements have been actually taken from inside a tornado.The lowest pressure recorded in a tornado was approximately 688 millibars in Tulia, Texas on April 21, 2007.However, this was not a sea level measurement and would likely have been higher if the tornado had occurred at sea level.
