Got a question about the wind speed.
WFTV is saying the winds are down to 80 mph. That seems awfully quick to go from a category four to nearly a tropical storm. I mean, that is a 60 mph decrease in an hour and a half since landfall???? Hugo hit South Carolina with winds of 150, I believe, and then hit Charlotte with 110 mph winds 200 miles inland. Donna hit the same area and hit Orlando with 90-100 mph winds.
Could this be acurate?
