Warm water, hot climate, upper level wind movement, and wind shear all have to be run thru the complex computer models...LJ

Category 5 is also possible... it missed all the land it was supposed to hit except Puerto Rico where it actually became a hurricane as exiting... that did not diminish it at all... but also another reason that it will probably miss Florida and go up the coast... a weaker storm would have gone more west first... unless something changes probably will miss Florida :-D could be the first MAJOR hurricane hit for the US since 2005 though...
