70mph was over water. Over land expect at least 20-30mph reduction due to land friction. NAS Pensacola is most probably the nearest official reporting site at landfall......MGC

From the NHC advisories... 70 mph sustained.

I haven't seen any sustained winds onshore near that(or even gusts).

Just got my power back on,lost it around 12:00.

Arlene was a very gusty storm,sustained winds were never all that strong.At my house sustained winds were only (my estimate) around 20-30mph but every minute or so a huge 50 or 60mph gust would roll through.
