Doesn't really look like a cat 5 anymore, but here it is... Typhicane (or Hurriphoon) Ioke at the International Date Line:
At this point, it is both the westernmost and easternmost category 5 (Saffir-Simpson scale) storm in recorded history.

Slightly stronger.
860 mb and 191 kt.
Sweet. I hope that really does happen to see how the tropical cyclone would appear. How large would the eye be at that strength? How cold and how thick of a deep convection ring would appear? It would truely be weather history in the making. 191 knots??

That would be horrible!
If there is a Wilma type strong hurricane making landfall on a large city, this board would not run at all.

I have to totally agree with that. You don't see soild red cdo's like that very often. If there was a clear tiny eye then this would be 155 knots or higher.
