We may be splitting hairs though...what the difference if you got 135mph or cat-5; you're talking about the difference between utter destruction and obliteration...




exactly. i don't know if you saw that little piece with anderson cooper when the hotel sign got ripped apart live on cnn. they had a gust to 120 mph, and literally it looked like the earth was ending. i can't even imagine sustained winds at 120mph. unreal.
