reporting FLIGHT LEVEL WINDS as if they were 10 meter winds, which is preposterous, and they fail to correctly forecast either track or intensity, even though computer models are supposedly dozens of times better than 20+ years ago. I swear the forecasters 20 or 30 years ago were ten times better than the guys at the NHC now.The reason you don't have a damage estimate yet is because this hurricane barely even did any damage, because again, it wasn't even cat 2. The "eye wall" passed directly over my house, and we never even saw 70mph wind gusts at my location. A regular severe thunderstorm does more damage than what we got out of 'francine". We never even lost electricity. I'm glad to say that, but it debunks the myth that claims this was a category 2 hurricane.

nailed Katrina FIVE DAYS ahead of time, and the only reason the death toll was that high is because people could have gotten up and walked away from Katrina and didn't even bother to do that. I live in Louisiana, and believe me, most of the death toll was lazy black people in New Orleans who refused to leave when given Mandatory evacuation order. the levee they've rebuilt will not survive an exact repeat of Katrina either.
84: 53: 22: 903:
Eh? 20 or 30 years ago, they didn't blow a Category 5 hurricane forecast completely like they did last year with Hurricane Otis. That was a completely unscientific "wish casting" by the NHC and they gave Mexico no warning whatsoever. Max Mayfield's NHC never would have blown that forecast. They

The strongest winds recorded on land were 96 mph GUST, which is exactly Cat 2, but only in Gusts. By definition, a hurricane needs sustained 1-minute winds of 96mph or greater to be Cat 2. This hurricane absolutely did not have 96+mph winds at any time in its lifetime. NHC has been incorrectly
838:
We are just simply following what the NHC says on here. If the NHC designates it as a Category 2 hurricane, then it is considered a Category 2 hurricane. We can't simply classify it as a tropical storm or a Category 1 hurricane on here unless the NHC revises it during post-analysis.

seem to be very notable besides Hurricane Francine. Hurricane Francene, while stronger than Francine, did not affect severely land and its strength does not seem to be of note or peculiar. The other Francenes and Francine don't seem to have impacted land so are not notable.
910:
Oh, sorry, they don't make their data permanently public, but instead take it down 2 hours after publishing it, so no, I cannot just query their data to prove that to you, because they hide the data from the live stream half the time anyway.
313:
I am writing this as landfall is imminent. Preparations, I believe, could be expanded further. More warnings and watches could be noted along with other local things. Also, more information surrounding Francine in Mexico is in order.
250: 67: 555:. Francine is very notable for its damages in the Gulf Coast of the United States and for good reason. And since there is only one Francine in the Atlantic, it would make sense to move the article. 341: 404:. The consensus was that if a detail would not reasonably stay for the next few years and wasn't trivial (like mentioning that the storm is active in the lead), then it should not be included. 649: 346: 1020: 255: 130: 1005: 231: 460: 125: 1010: 155: 714:, take example from Beryl 2018 (which was originally titled Hurricane Beryl) - if a stronger storm of the same name comes to take its place, we can move it back. 817:
A 96mph Sustained CATEGORY 2 Hurricane is expected to have 3-second GUSTS TO 125MPH TO 130MPH, Much, much higher than anything recorded even at flight level.
1015: 900:
Real Science is supposed to be independently and repeatably verified. Independent data proves this was a 70mph sustained TRPICAL STORM with a gust to 96mph.
191: 145: 1000: 226: 63: 883:. And as for your point that "forecasters 20 or 30 years ago were ten times better than the guys at the NHC now", please give a source for that claim. 639: 995: 181: 150: 135: 1025: 140: 698: 635: 444:
