Re: Oh NO!!

Hello folks,
Well we've been waiting for this storm to organize and spin up to an intensity commensurate with the pressures we've been seeing. Even so, I have to say I'm a bit shocked how fast this thing has jumped into cat 4 status. So just to open up the discussion for you weather geeks: what does the intensity situation look like from here forward? I know the water is extremely warm, low shear etc. But does anyone have some insights into what we will see vis a vis intensity as the projected path seems to be bad no matter what jogs this storm might take prior to landfall.
