Re: catVrickonboat...this could be serious

I wasn't joking...

Think Charley will make it into the gulf as a cat 3...we will see. Maybe just a two...but certainly by the time it makes landfall, it will be a major hurricane.

After all...anything past a 3 is pure guess work. NO ONE knows what mechanisms must be present from a 3 to a 5.

But Gulf storms have the hottest water...hence, my thoughts that a serious one is in the making...

We'll see.
