Recon about to start sampling.
Absolutely wild. All of this in the eye, in which we circled for some time to deploy the UAS (uncrewed aerial system).

A high end Cat 4 storm. Nearly Cat 5.
All of this at 8,000 feet above the ocean. I’m glad we only did one pass. pic.twitter.com/hd2L7icLQY

Our @USAFReserve 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron just landed.
We hit hail, massive turbulence in the eye wall that dropped us 1000+ feet and saw #hurricaneIan rapidly intensity.
It was NOT even calm inside the eye.

One more mission inbound toward Ian right now. Obviously, different crew and plane.
Abandoned dominator fore. Salvaged science bag. Retreated to shelter. Very intense @ChrisFLTornado @accuweather
