I know what you guys said about it...but this was the actual On-Flight Met and he said they recorded 70 knots at the surface...so it is still confusing...cycloneye wrote:brunota2003 wrote:Hey, on the wx channel, they just got done speaking to the Flight Meteorologist onboard, his plane touched down not to long ago...he said they measured winds at flight level of 74 knots and that the surface winds were 70 knots...it was Lt Col Rich Harter if I remember correctly...anyone know anything about that or did anyone else see it?
Look back at the first thread link and see the data that I and others posted this morning about the 74kts.
speaking to the Flight Meteorologist onboard, his plane touched down not to long ago...he said they measured winds at flight level of 74 knots and that the surface winds were 70 knots...it was Lt Col Rich Harter if I remember correctly...anyone know anything about that or did anyone else see it?
that is what he said...74 at flight level and 70 knots on the surface...I honestly have no idea if it was disgarded as bad data or what?Audrey2Katrina wrote:speaking to the Flight Meteorologist onboard, his plane touched down not to long ago...he said they measured winds at flight level of 74 knots and that the surface winds were 70 knots...it was Lt Col Rich Harter if I remember correctly...anyone know anything about that or did anyone else see it?
Okay, I'm confused here. You mean they are suggesting the difference from flight level to surface level winds is only 4 KTS? Somehow or other this doesn't make logical sense to me--perhaps someone could explain what I'm not seeing.
