Re: Katrina's Forecast Track Shifts West, Northern Gulf Needs to Watch

Im glad we have not seen any sign of this coming into a strong cat 4 storm or a 5 like many thought it would be already.

Many were thinking as soon as it hit the GOM it would be a 3 but thank you for the dry air.



Well, the dry air infusion this afternoon helped slow development, but I still don't see any reason to rule out Cat 4. At this point it still hasn't moved outside the bounds of the intensity models that I saw a few hours back.
