"Not according to the weather channel guy I just heard on the radio. Still Cat 5 at 175, gusts to 200."I heard that at 5:00 AM EST then around 6:00 some guy on the radio said it was down to 150. For all I know he was reading a wire report from yesterday.
It does appear from the current forecast it will start to weaken and continue to do so, hopefully they'll be correct.

I suspect that for most modern houses, the difference between 175mph and 150mph is academic.
