I wonder what the other intensity models are showing?




Intensity models are notoriously inaccurate. It could potentially hit 180-190+, too. I suspect it will not stay cat 5 for 48+ hours though... at least I hope, but Louisiana isn't exactly the Rocky Mountains. Look at what the Everglades did to Katrina - pretty much made her mad and out to seek revenge.
