Did you know?

Hurricane & cones are same size.

How?
NHC cone size is same for every storm, resized at start of each year. Each may look different based on storm movement speed, direction and map scale. Cone maps do not convey track confidence or storm size. (Cont.)

I'd appreciate it if one day we had two categorizations for hurricanes or other TSs. Like, cat 2 for wind but cat 5 for rain/flood. Harvey was no longer cat 4 in wind speed when it got to where I lived, but 50 inches of rain needed its own category. These flooding events are going to be the norm, and people still think riding out a cat 1 is no big deal.

@Agatha I think we’ll get there one day. There are a few groups out there trying to come up with something like that now, with impacts broken down into their own rating systems.

@WeatherSources

Oh sweet! I hadn't seen anything yet. That's good to hear.
