    In a message dated 20/06/2006 16:53:31 GMT Daylight Time,
     writes:

    Is one independent story I found in Halifax, which was 200 nm north. If they
    had 78 km/h, it is not surprizing that if would be gusting to 108 (that is
    the max observed in the news report about Free Spirit)

    78km/h is only 42 knots considerably less that half of this 100 knots figure
    that you first posted in fact only 42% :-)
     
    and since no one knows anything about Free Spirit other than we dont know
    what happened to it yet - how did these 'OBSERVATIONS' from Free Spirt come to
    hand?
     
    Still very very unconvinced
     
    regards
