Weather CHannel says it's now a CAT 4, no longer a CAT 5.
Did you see the weather girl on TWC in Galveston with that tight grey t-shirt? I can't wait until it starts to rain.
A drop to Cat 4 is good news but not jump-up-and-down-doing-the-happy news. She's till pushing a storm surge generated by the third lowest pressure gradient ever recorded in the Atlantic basin. Like Katrina, she will weaken in wind speed before she hits, but she'll being pushing a wall of water ahead of her.
