Possible Cat 4 :/

I know they're saying lots of flooding however I don't think the problem is storm surge. The rapid increase in strength will not create a gigantic amount of storm surge versus a CAT 3 or 4 spending days at that strength and really churning the seas.

With the current NHC projecting that it's going to stall just past the coast, THAT seems to be the worst of this. Dropping a foot and a half to two feet of rain will be the worst of all of this if it happens IMO.
