Agree, I don't cut off the possibility of a Cat. 5 landfall either.

If it makes landfall in the Carolinas, it probably wouldn't be Cat 5. May even weaken to a Cat 3.

I think it's a Florida landfall as well. Fully expecting it to be a Cat 4. There's a chance at Cat 5, but I would NEVER "expect" a Cat 5.
