- jve 5y agoI actually had the expectation that Eye of the hurricane is pretty calm. Doesn't look like. And then I wonder what happens on the edge of the hurricane...
- jagged-chisel 5y agoBut this footage is not from within the eye.
- sergers 5y agois it not? i assumed it was the eye with the title "inside a huricane" other sites: "For first time ever, drone sent into eye of Cat. 4 hurricane" the article outlines footage from inside the hurricane.
- jameshart 5y ago‘Inside a hurricane’ could very well mean either ‘inside the envelope around a hurricane where wind speeds exceed hurricane force’, ‘inside the eye wall of a hurricane’, rather than ‘inside the eye of a hurricane’. If someone tells you there’s jam inside a donut do you complain that the hole through the middle appears to contain no jam?
- jagged-chisel 5y ago> the article outlines footage from inside the hurricane. Further the article has a video showing the location of the drone in the storm, pretty far from the eye.
- axpy906 5y agoThat does not look like an eye due to darkness. Waves would be a bit calmer too as the wind would die.
- jacquesm 5y agoIt definitely seems like it is from within the eye, or at least extremely close to it based on the video imagery.
- hirsin 5y agoThe eye is very calm - and freakily bright. It glows from all directions as the light is reflected down into it, causing all the windows in the house to cast shadows onto the floor, which your brain can quickly realize is wrong! But I expect on the water it's a bit different - I experienced the eye of hurricane Charley when it made landfall in Florida in 2004. My uncle actually ran for his camera because he figured it'd be calm a while. Thankfully he was right
- arwineap 5y agoBullshit. Maybe force 6 is normal, but this is easily force 10+ Even the fastnet race of 79 was LESS than what we are seeing in this video The pilot chart for north atlantic in december is showing 20% of days are at a gale in your latitudes, but that's again, a far stretch from the video: https://www.offshoreblue.com/nav/pilot-charts.php https://www.offshoreblue.com/nav/pilot-charts.php Here's the beaufort scale for reference: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/faq/tornado/beaufort.html https://www.spc.noaa.gov/faq/tornado/beaufort.html
