Hurricane Emily (2005) was an average-sized hurricane by Atlantic basin standards. There are two standard measures of the size of hurricanes: the extent of its gale force winds (34-knot, tropical storm-force winds) as measured from the center of low pressure, and the ROCI (radius of the outermost closed isobar, or line of constant pressure). At its peak, Emily's maximum gale force wind radius in any quadrant of the storm was 140 nautical miles (nm), with ROCI of 3 degrees latitude, or 180 nm, both squarely in the middle of the average size range for Atlantic hurricanes.
