Back on track with Recon.
The second aricraft is 'Inbound NE' of the storm.

Aircraft currently in the storm reported a Flight Level Max Wind of 111kts at 0253Z.
Using the 91% factor this would give a surface wind estimate of 116mph.
More than high enough to destroy property.

I'm speculating that the current presentation on radar regarding the SE quadrant of the core circulation field may be not accurate?
