What is this in *F? Aren't these winds a little high since the eye looks to be about 60 miles to the west of the island? Boy, Ivan must have a HUGE windfield!

HURRICANE FORCE WINDS EXTEND OUTWARD UP TO 70 MILES


Remember, they are on the most intense side(NE-E quadrant), so it's not that far-fetched.
