Hurricane Irma finally made landfall on the continental U.S. Sunday morning, battering the Florida Keys first and then proceeding north to the southwestern coast of the Sunshine State.
Looking at this Hurricane Katrina forecast from 2005, you'll see an uncomfortably similar story and track. It's almost exactly what we're currently seeing with Hurricane Irma.
Earlier today, I did a story giving you a heads up about fake weather forecasts floating around social media. Right on cue, this afternoon I see a Facebook post saying Hurricane Irma will be a category 6 hurricane. I thought a cat 5 was the strongest measure of a hurricane. Did I miss something?
In the wake of Hurricane Harvey, the entire country is keeping an eye on Hurricane Irma. Idiots are creating "fake weather forecasts" and creating hysteria on social media. The National Weather Service wants to warn the public about these "fake weather forecasts".
