Are you kidding? After the third one or whatever, it just gets boring. I am BORED by hurricanes and hearing about them on the news.

Actually, this is the hurricane with the highest pressure on record... it went from tropical storm to CAT 5 in 2 days... I think it's worth watching.

From what I've read, Hurricanes (much like many natural disasters) seem to have a cycle of approximatly 20 years. Last I heard we reached the peak of the Hurricane cycle at 15 years this year. I'm guessing this would explain why a lot of the former records go back a few decades I guess.

Katrina was a 175 MPH Cat. 5 storm then it fizzled to Cat. 4 as it made landfall

Rita was a 175 MPH Cat. 5 storm then it fizzled to Cat. 3 as it made landfall

Wilma is a 160 MPH Cat. 5 storm then it will fizzle to nothing more than a strong tropical storm maaaaybe still a hurricane.

I think you mean lowest pressure. The lower the pressure the more damage it will cause. Latest update shows 892 mb.

Yeah this storm season has been a big one... :eek: Maybe it's a sign of the end of times or some religious hocuspocus like that...

Agreed. Going from 5 -> 4 still means the hurricane is packing quite the wallop as the unfortunate souls of New Orleans and Biloxi had to bear witness. Perhaps better wording on my behalf.

Point I was trying to stress is that the media is portraying it as "HURICAEN 5 UR ALL GOING 2 DIE!!!11" but the last two impacting storms lost strength. And I suspect this one will too. Hurricanes are no laughing matter but media outlets are using these storms as ratings boosters ergo overhype will ensue. Let weather people do their jobs first!

And the non-stop media coverage doesn't help, either. Not to mention the fact that could be using video footage from any hurricane and it'll look exactly the same. Wind, rain, flooding. Why do we need "reporters" to tell us what a hurricane does?

Yeah, that's true... how do we know which hurricane it is? Hell, I could probably post this picture and say "OMG I took this picture when trying to escape from New Orleans after Katrina" and there'd be someone that would believe me...
