Florida braces as Hurricane Dorian strengthens to Category 3

There is nothing stopping Hurricane Dorian from becoming a Category 5 storm when it hits the state's east coast as early as Monday, meteorologists have claimed.

Some forecasters say there is a chance the storm will become the highest classification on the scale because Dorian has now developed an eye.

'Hurricane #Dorian has developed an eye...Expecting it to become a major hurricane today,' said meteorologist Ryan Maue on Twitter on Friday. 'Nothing currently stopping storm from reaching Category 5. There I said it.'

KRQE meteorologist Christopher Nunley added: 'Hurricane Dorian developing an eye. Major hurricane likely today. Wouldn’t be surprised if Dorian intensifies into a Category 5 over the weekend. Florida, take this seriously, this is a life threatening hurricane.'

Forecasters need to stop saying may spare a direct hit,to some that means ride it out which will be a poor decision.

Now people have spent all that money preparing and the storm shifts. Maybe they can truck it all northward now. It seems like every weather related event is to sell bottled water and plywood. Your damned if your prepared and damned if your not. These events are becoming every more frequent. Every hurricane season now we larger and stronger storms. Most of us remember by name the great storms but now it's hard to keep up with them all.
