Both planes are having transmission issues.

SE eyewall, NE winds, that sonde got blown around and went for a ride.

That one went for a ride

Not in the Atlantic, Allen was the closest, but its first peak was 911 and its third was 909.

155 knot SFMR

902.4 extrap, waiting on the sonde

The weakening was always overplayed IMO. It takes more than that to kill a hurricane like Milton.

I’m asking because that’s where 7.7 is coming from

Sustained and very intense lightning in the eyewall
