That is a significant breeze (just over 60 mph) - getting close to hurricane
strength (70+ mph). Hopefully they can stay on the island and the antennas
can stay up. Most current antennas are rated around 80 mph (and some heavy
duty ones over 100 mph) but I would guess many have never actually been
tested at that speed.

What are those elements made of? That can bend that far and not break.
Reminds me of a Larsen 2 meter 5/8 wave mobile ant :-)
