OP, made his call too soon as it went from Cat 1 to Cat 2 just before landfall. No big deal as there is little difference between a strong Cat 1 or a rather weak Cat 2., maybe 1 or 2 miles an hour. The major networks all called it a Cat 2 and get their information from the hurricane center. What else is there to know?
