That last one was when she was still a Cat 5 (obviously).

About the first one, here's what the poster said:

Just figured it out! For those interested..... if you save the picture, open in MS Imaging and then save with another name and you'll be able to open it.

Nope, that one's fake. Received it twice already in emails labeled as "Claudette" and I already posted about it in "Off Topic" thread. The seas are calm and there's no rain. Pretty much figured it's a pic taken by hurricane hunters waaaaay up there before they fly into it and it's been merged with a pic taken from the ship. There are two of them floating out there.

Curious about that pic of the freighter and the cloud. Is that supposed to be clouds from a hurricane? I find that unlikely, there are NO seas in that photo. If that was a hurricane the water would not be that calm.
