Just over 4 hours I believe. That is simply amazing.


Well that's the record for this season.

I have to go back to my (scribbled) notes but I believe 10mb per hour for several hours was the previous record (Rita).

*******

Guess Rita didn't even drop that fast. These were my handwritten notes for Rita:

988 5am Tue
956 5am Wed
934 11am Wed
928 12 noon
914 2:30p
904 4:16p
898 6pm

And...did I read that right, that the eye is now only 4mn in diameter? I'm glad the recon caught this one because it is sure to be short-lived.
