Weathervine Storm Chaser In Eye in Ft Pierce ATTM

#1 Postby wxvine » Sun Sep 26, 2004 12:56 am

Updated - 144am ET Wow! What a evening. We are in Ft Pierce, FL along the intercoastal water way. We are currently in the eye of Jeanne with a pressure reading of 953mb. Our strongest winds in the western eyewall was around 110 mph with gusts likely near 125mph. We are now waiting on the eastern eyewall. There is very impressive surge from the water in the downtown area's here of Ft Pierce and all around the marina. There is damage to buildings and homes much worst than with Frances right here in the same location a few weeks ago. We are in a group of 5 people at this time. Jim Edds, Chris Collura, Jason Foster, Doug Kiesling and myself Jeff Gammons.

More to come after the eastern eyewall and sunrise.
