Yes she is! Maybe she was just waiting for recon to get there before she decided to start showing off.

Pressure altitude was 1833 meters... radar alititude 1882 meters... so it's flying a little bit higher than the 850 mb level, I think...
So 60 knots at the surface or just slightly below hurricane.

Wrong, look in the thread above...
850 millibar height: 1429 meters
They were flying at 700 mb
