        Exactly what the ppl need to know. Of course less wind helps, but they need to know about the water being pushed toward the coast, that cannot simply halt, and then add what is yet to fall from the sky.

        If Category doesn't matter then why does NHC even categorize them. Words like catastrophic, historic, once in a lifetime should be reserved for AFTER the storm not before, lest the words lose their meaning. Stop sensationalizing.

        How many indirect deaths would’ve been counted under the new Trump system? 10,000? 20,000? Basically anyone that happened to die within a month of the hurricane?
