I agree, probably nothing more than 75-85 MPH if that much.

A 75-80 mph hurricane won't surprise me....but anything more than 85 mph will.

Although Juan might make it to minimal hurricane status, I'm going to say strong TS.

But even a fish CHV it counts for the totals stats for the season and believe me Dr Gray counts on those to say his numbers are right. :)
