Climate Wackos Are Now Fearmongering About A Category 6 Hurricane

Hurricane Milton is getting all sorts of crazy, so we see

And there’s plenty of that on Twitter. And, even news weenies

Could Hurricane Milton become a Category 6? Why does the NHC’s scale stop at 5?

Hurricane Milton was just a tropical storm a day ago but it powered up incredibly quickly, forming a hurricane Sunday afternoon and surging up into a dangerous Category 5 hurricane within 24 hours as it crosses the very warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Forecasters from the National Hurricane Center say some weakening is anticipated before it slams into Florida’s west coast Wednesday. But that kind of rapid intensification is frightening.

If it keeps going, would Category 5 be enough to describe it? Do we need to add a Category 6?

Some experts say yes, but don’t expect to see one any time soon.

Of course they do, because it allows them to fearmonger

Hurricane Allen in 1980 reached maximum sustained winds of 190 mph. The “Labor Day” hurricane, in 1935, Hurricane Gilbert, in 1988, Hurricane Dorian in 2019, and Hurricane Wilma in 2005 all reached maximum sustained winds of 185 mph.

You also have the 1938 hurricane that hit Long Island in late September, with reports of 180 mile per hour winds. Though, since it was 1938 no one really has full data, especially as to whether that was sustained or gusts. Particularly since the wind gauge broke.

Hurricane Milton Hits Cat 5: Is It Time To Consider A Category 6?

No. Including the reason that the formatting at your website is atrocious. Seriously, the Warmists have been yapping about this for a few years, and their whole rational is to present ‘climate change’ as doom, despite giant hurricanes happening periodically.
