Hugh, these are the 3 reasons why they kept it at 150mph:
1. COMMUNICATIONS PROBLEMS ARE PREVENTING THE RECEIPT OF MOST DATA FROM
THE AIR FORCE RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT THIS AFTERNOON.
2. EARLIER IN THE FLIGHT...A PEAK SFMR WIND OF 123 KT WAS OBSERVED.
3. DVORAK CLASSIFICATIONS FROM TAFB AND SAB WERE 127 KT AT 18Z.
Essentially they chose not to extrapolate.
