Predicting now a Cat 4 once she reaches the Gulf.
Anons may think this doesnt affect them, but whether this storm goes into Tx or La, the area it will hit is replete with oil and gas refineries. This will affect everyone in the United States.
truly hope so, anon. Even a Cat 2 cause all sorts of damage 100 miles inland due to high winds and lots of timber being tore up. Things other than storm surge can cause death from that big a storm. Not to dox muhself but anon in the path.
