I wouldn't be surprised if she did reach cat. 5, the way she strengthened in the past few days.

SO! I ask the same question again tonight, under different circumstances. It seems the EWRC is nearly complete, and Emily is under more favorable conditions to strengthen. The 2 a.m. advisory states that the winds are "AT LEAST 135 mph."

So here it is again. Cat. 5?

Or not?
it never what a cat.5 cane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
