it’s now running at Cat 5 so it’s a monster.

I was on holiday in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic in 2005 when we were licked by the tropical storm that would become Hurricane Katrina. For someone who has grown up with the relatively temperate climate of the UK, that in itself was seriously scary - rain like I've never seen before in my life combined with winds that made it feel like the patio door of our hotel room was going to come through at any moment.

What it's like to experience the full fat version I don't even like to contemplate. Hopefully this doesn't turn out to be as disastrous as Katrina was.
