Er, that's over 300 kilometers from the center. Still majorly impressive. A whole lot of ignorant people are going to die in this hurricane. I'd love to anguish about that, but I have a life to continue living.

Life sucks, but I'm not about to declare bankruptcy anytime soon.

nope, that's 300 miles (287 nautical miles equals roughly 330 statute miles).

See, look at the "nm" over the distance from center.

Although technically you're right, it is also over 300 km from the center as well.
