It sure was. When the storm approached we recorded a 34mph wind gust which was cool to see. The last time we had one that high was when Dennis swept by. The lightning was incredible tonight south of Sanibel when it was heading into the Naples area. But you're right, they shouldve bumped that 30% up a lot higher. Surprised
