At around 2:10am AST there were momentary winds found by a sonde of about 160 knots (184 mph) at the 894mb level.
Considering the highest winds found in a sonde so far in this storm have been 173 kts (199.1 mph) on the way down, "they are still no where what they were" isn't accurate when it comes to winds at higher levels.
actually that is quite accurate.
local gust happen.. but wide spread 160kt at the surface and higher levels in all quads earlier is quite a bit diffefrent than now.
so yes.. again still not down playing this.. it is very dangerous and will be beyond destructive.
im just a numbers guy... a scientist.
