CaneTalk: 10 second estimated surface wind by SFMR instrument was 98 knots (113mph) in NE quadrant

10 second estimated surface wind by SFMR instrument was 98 knots (113mph) in NE quadrant

98 knots twice in a row. (obs are reported every 30 seconds, but the SFMR is only a 10s estimate) So the NHC's advisory wind speed is correct. They haven't sampled the NW or SE quadrants yet. NW could be a little higher based on storm's movement.
