I\'ll have a double-double with a side of wind shear

Sitting here at work when this came across my desk.

WEATHER WATCH
SBA UUA /OV RZS049009/TM 2359/FL120/TP SR22/WV 338062KT/TB MOD-SEV/RM SVR WS -85KT/P50KT IAS LVL FLT

I had to blink a few times and read it again. Yikes!

Hope he was exaggerating.

Am I reading the SR22 as being a cirrus? Wouldn't a shear of that magnatude pretty much drop a cirrus out of the sky?

After an airspeed loss of 85 knots, an SR22 would only be cruising at 100 KIAS....
