Found an AOL report stating that readings taken at a number of AccuWeather meters located on oil rigs in the gulf, Eugene island being one, showed winds of 97 to 112 mph. Meters located between 100-200 ft above ocean surface. Will you accept this?
By the way, as of latest search, no deaths (thank goodness) attributed to Francine.
