Not a meteorologist, in fact more of an idiot than anything. You should probably check with the NHC or a local NWS office for official information.

Brett Adair just said he got a report that most of the windows in the Chase building in downtown St Charles are broken. That building is immediately to the east of Reed's vehicle.

Yeah, he got into Mike's Tahoe about 15/20 minutes ago. They have been driving by to check on his car every so often. I belive he said something earlier about wanting to ride in Mike's truck so they could get around debris better.

Josh tweeted 20+ minutes ago that the radar said they were well into the eye (he's in Sulphur, I believe), but the winds were still strong. Said windows are broken at the hotel and that a lobby wall has separated.

I guess Reed's camera is in the eye? Maybe? Certainly not dead calm.

Is Jeff P's feed back up?

Reed's Amazing Wipers are multipurpose. Not only do they keep away any and all water, they are currently lulling me to sleep.

Looks like Adair's feed is down right now. Brandon Clement was with him earlier, maybe still is. Right now he's driving around in the eye checking out damage.

https://livestormchasing.com , then click the eyeball next to his name. Of course it just went out, for me at least. They were talking about a fire at a nearby refinery and were trying to leave the parking garage at the L'Auberge Casino.
