Recon hasn't been in the storm in almost 4 hours, so i wouldn't use that to back up what's going on inside the storm.

What difference would it make? Anyone dumb enough to still be in their house in the path of this thing isn't going anywhere any time soon -- it's too late to leave. That's why the local government calls them "mandatory" evacs -- because there is a good chance you will DIE if you stick around. I know your nerves are frayed at a time like this, but the NHS posted hurricane warnings YESTERDAY. Hurricane warning + mandatory evac means GET OUT, not "wait until it's a Cat 5 and the rain is coming in sideways before considering leaving."

Yeah its much to late to evacuate. People don't really need to know the exact wind velocity. This is a big mother of a storm and they are doing what their doing regardless of windspeed or category.
