This is especially frustrating because the only reason we know the wind speed is because NOAA's Hurricane Hunters literally fly into the hurricane and collect vital data. They fly in and out of the storm over and over in 8 hour shifts.
This brave team flies two identical Lockheed P3s called Kermit and Miss Piggy.
You can see the dangling ornaments in the videos to determine which plane they are in.
And when I say they fly into the hurricane, I mean they fly *into* the hurricane.
Here they are in the eye of Milton.
And here they are in the eye of Irma.

As you may notice, this flight was in Kermit.
So the next time you see live data about a hurricane's wind speed and pressure, just remember how that was collected and don't be a giant turd about it.
And please vote because conservatives want to kill NOAA.

idk why but i absolutely hate AI generated images of wizards more than any other AI pictures.
i think it's because the sparse pickings of beautifully rendered oil painting tableaus of wizards from the late 20th century (for things like game manuals and fantasy novels) feel like they actually are made of magic to me.
to see those familiar shapes choked and twisted out of the chaotic mess of predicative digital brush strokes is like watching a dying pig's face transform into the face of my weeping mother before it stops moving forever.
