Helene was only a category 4 and did this amount of damage. It's insane.
“Only” a cat 4? It was one step away from the highest rating of 5..
Last I read this morning it was still a category 4 and never made 5.
Yes correct. But I’m more pointing that that saying “only a cat 4” comes across like if it was a weak storm that did all the damage. It was about 15mph shy of being the highest rating.
