Yeah, this thing just went to category 4 too. If my predictions are right, this thing will be category 5 by the time it makes landfall in the US. There's no way it will not strengthen even more as soon as it enters the Gulf.
This is going to be bad, and sad thing is, this is very close to the 3 year of Katrina. 3 year and 1 day today to be exact, heard that on the news this morning. I hope they reinforced New Orleans enough.
