Re: Lower wind speed at landfall?

Quote:

Stormhound, Channel 6 is making the same mistake a bunch of folks in the office are. In the NHC discussion, they have the 48 hour location at 90kts and Inland (which usually means its made landfall and is weakening. The discussion stated they believe that Frances will make landfall as a Cat 4 hurricane.




Thanks Clyde. Major blunder on the part of Local 6.
