cat 5's are rare.....this is a big August

At the very least, anyone on the Gulf Coast, and from the tip of Florida to Maine, better keep tabs on Frances.

Sure looks Andrew like to be. The eyewall replacement cycle resulted in an eyewall 20 miles wide, increases the size and potential devastation "swath" this thing will bring.

When does the hurricane center ever mention cat 4 possibility...? now, I guess...


cat 5 Mobile, isn't such an outlandish joke anymore
