We were on the leeward side of storm, not much wind at all.
Why?
Fast moving storm, rotation - storm speed on the leeward side.
Much worse on opposite side,
rotation + storm speed.

Speed of the storm would have been faster than 5kts.
GA is about 350 miles, which was covered pretty quickly.
5kts = ~6mph results in 58 hrs.
