However, your point is well taken about altered data. Politicos will do what politicos need to do as every politico is a survivor. .

Note -- Greg Postel, from the Weather Channel, is also questioning the NHC decision like I am. He too can not find evidence of Cat 2 status ... https://x.com/GregPostel/status/1833978091225641023

Cat 1 and Cat 2 are separated by 1 mph. Get it wrong and heads will roll. 🤭

Guess you and Greg should picket NHC headquarters until they show you their wind speed indicator. While your there, ask if anyone knows how much human made CO2 warmed the atmosphere last year. Inquiring minds want to know.

OK, i see the conflicts:
surface wind measurement, versus aircraft wind measurement at elevation, versus barometric pressure indicated wind speed versus short term trend extrapolation versus agreed upon classification thresholds versus overly conservative fear of underestimating and getting sued, which has happened and the govt lost.

Therefore, the scenario is in the grey zone, which can be very disturbing to strong xSxJ personality types, and notable was that the Cat2 didn't last long. .
so even though my brother has a house in NO and in MS, so yeah, i am not going to be looking for a massive, significant conspiracy theory at the moment, as an xNxP personality type.

Personally, since insurance companies pay out or are held to expectations based upon weather storm classifications, as far as i am concerned for them, this was a cat 7 storm

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?

Can't see the hurricane from my backyard, so I really don't care what category it is.

What is your non-hearsay evidence that it was a Cat 1? It might just have been a tropical storm.

ABC News is complicate in faking the climate crisis -- so they are not reliable. Plus, Greg Postel of the Weather Channel sees the same problem like I so ... there is no data to support the Cat 2 status ... https://x.com/GregPostel/status/1833978091225641023

The Cat 1 data is obvious as the DATA shows ... https://x.com/GregPostel/status/1833978091225641023

You might care a whole lot when you know inflation of severe weather data (including temperature) all go to support the fake climate crisis -- which creates unnecessary taxes and less freedoms of choice. Remember what Ottmar said.

I expect the citizens of Louisiana will consider a category 1 hurricane sufficient.
