09/25/04 NOW: Jeanne (Atlantic)

Amazingly, power and internet have not failed me. The winds picked up here around 0800z. Orlando International Airport reported a gust of 87mph around 0900z. Since that time, the winds at my place have kept a pretty steady 40-50mph with gusts to 65mph. Pressure here is currently 985.8mb, and fluctuating wildly, but still generally falling. Judging by the radar, it would appear that while curving around our south, Jeanne is maintaining a position that keeps Orlando in roughly the same speed of winds, because we haven't seen much change here in about 6 hours now. This is yet another similarity to Frances.
