I found the ATC recording. Lots of wind shear. Weather directly over the top of the field. Can't tell 100% but sounds like they didn't know they hit the tail at all. Interesting to see what comes about out of this. To me kinda sounded like a normal wind shear day in a hub, their number just came up. They reported a -20 knot loss at 10 ft.
