It's been called the strongest storm ever on record. Her fury is projected to traverse the entire length of Florida. Our Florida friends have already battened down their homes and headed to the mountains of KY, WV, TN, GA, and NC with their families, pets, and family photos. Prayers have been requested.

The strongest storm on record that I've found is the 1935 Labor Day Hurricane. Who's reported Irma as the strongest? Just curious.

Certainly a dangerous situation and we can pray that it skirts Florida some.

The National Weather Service.

I saw a post about it being the first recorded to sustain 185 mph winds for the longest. Is that what you're referencing?

I'm quoting the NWS' words verbatim. Period. They are the weather authority with the archives.

Okay. Well if you want to provide a link, I'd like to read. If not... Then okay...

Looking to start an argument again? You have Google like everyone else. You should try listening instead of arguing. You'll be a better Christian for it.

While this has your attention you should argue less and pray more for these folks.

I've googled and read a few articles; learned some things I didn't know, learned some stuff I did know. That's how I saw what the NWS said about sustained winds. I tried.

Couldn't find exactly what you quoted, but that's fine. This conversation needn't go further obviously.

That's a rather generous interpretation of "verbatim" and "NWS", but thanks.
