The best is yet to come- trust me on that one! You have not seen anything yet as far as our capabilities. We are about to pull off something that has never been done before. Stay tuned and you will see it happen sooner or later.

You're going to chase a hurricane naked?

[quote="hurricanetrack"]
As far as the overpass issue- it was likely a bad idea. I will talk to the folks at the Hurricane Research Division to find out more about how hurricane winds work with an overpass. Perhaps my video and wind data will help in that arena. We took a 127mph wind before we went under the overpass. The turbulence was quite amazing. I need to learn more about this to make sure that it is indeed not a good refuge of absolute last resort to those who are caught out in the open.[quote]

The wind speeds would have increased under the overpass. If you had 127 mph winds outside of the overpass, they were probably closer to 140 under the overpass. You are lucky to be alive my friend!! :)

Let me know if you would like to record anything on Indie Gospel Radio regarding your experience or if you would like to record something regarding Hurricane Safety or the like.
