Robert Roy BrittLatest airplane recon flight from Air Force hurricane hunters finds #Helene finds "peak flight-level winds of 136 kt in the eastern eyewall, with another central pressure drop to 948mb," according to hurricane expert Levi Cowen. "This means Helene is probably near or at Category 4 intensity now." We can expect an update soon from the NHC.
I mean, Cat 4? This thing became a #hurricane only yesterday!
