Re: Is Mala A Cyclone...or What

JTWC warning #11 which coincided with landfall estimated winds at 100kts, a Cat 3. There is one story out on the AP with prelim damage. A lot of roofs off, but it is hard to translate that into windspeeds unless you know the building code. It did hit a relatively unpopulated area.
