I think because we’ve seen cat 5s do less damage across the nation. The category is for wind strength and doesn’t necessarily corelate with flooding /rain fall
Yes correct. But I’m more pointing that that saying “only a cat 4” comes across like if it was a weak storm that did all the damage. It was about 15mph shy of being the highest rating.
And durechos in Iowa, and smoke covering the sky for months, and “cold snaps”, and hottest summers on record, yeah these are all normal things that I totally remember having as a child. Keep your heads in the sand people, it’s all just one crazy storm, they couldn’t possibly be all related

“Only” a cat 4? It was one step away from the highest rating of 5…

Yeah man-made climate change ain’t real, we get hurricanes in Tennessee all the time

It doesn’t help when idiots keep building in flood plains.
