Further information from NWS..

They have lost 3 maybe 4 antennas and one blown transformer from lightning strikes.

Still no estimate of when data flow will be restored.

Yeah....somethin' tells me that recon is NOT going to find a weak borderline 2 out there....

She was looking better, not worse, in presentation even before the satellite cut off IMHO.....she looks wonderful this evening.
