Ida and Harvey were also 9 so looks like we might have a 9 curse now as well lol

I would take that cat 2 with a pinch of salt. most off the models are predicting 4 to 5, take care and stay safe everyone
OK follow the models then.

I can't remember ever seeing a potentially destructive landfalling hurricane that will be moving this fast. I mean you can imagine a car driving 25 mph, that's fast! I guess it's great news for rain impacts though. Also, it makes me wonder if it's moving this fast, won't that mean more damage further inland since it takes awhile for winds to decrease?

I believe Michael was moving quite quickly. Im not sure it it was as fast as 25 mph but it was moving relatively fast.

Charlie was really racing too. And in fact, the storm's forward speed can add mph to the wind speeds circulating around it in that right front quadrant.
