Also, has anyone heard from Josh since the storm?

Jeff about 10 miles from Josh did make a post last night and said it was really really bad.

But Josh usually always disappears for a few days I've noticed

It wouldn't be surprising if we didn't for at least another day or two honestly. He doesn't carry a Starlink with him and comms are bad to pretty much gone in the parish he was at.

If we get towards the end of the weekend and still nothing, it'll be fair to wonder.

Regarding Josh, this is a Floyd Green tweet from 9:03PM:

Yeah I kind of figured he was trying to help and not caring about social media

Y'all gotta remember he's done this before he's not stupid... He chased a typhoon even stronger than this in the Philippines years ago

…oh god, I’d probably be the ladies who were trying to hold their ears shut here.

Sounds like he chose well on structure to shelter in. If I don’t forget, I may try to watch his 20ish minute video when he’s ready to push it out.

Oh yeah he always goes for a good structure that's sometimes why he may not be in the worst winds etc

But dang to hear him admit it may be the worst hurricane of the 83 he's done

His data may even get mentioned when the NHC does the final report in a few months I believe it has before. That will probably decide if the record tying 892 holds up or not

This probably wasn't even the worst of it... Apparently they exceeded G force at some point and had to get out of the storm on more than one pass. Like that never happens

But as crazy as it is I don't think a plane has been lost since the 1950s in the Atlantic

The Pacific had one lost in 1974

Hugo almost had one lost apparently
