Looks like it was a big flop, not worse than Harvey

The measured strengths of its winds were definitely not a flop; did you see what it did to Barbuda and St. Martin? The U.S. mainland is fucking lucky that 1) it weakened from a category 5 and 2) its path moved westward in the last 24 hours. The Keys are still getting rocked and we'll see how badly central FL gets it.

Also odd to see a storm considered a "flop" if it doesn't result in dilapidation >__> that's a good thing.

From a media hype standpoint, it flopped. But yeah. I'd only classify 2 as being lucky. The weakening of the storm was expected. Even at Cat 3, a direct hit on Miami probably would have cleaned out the entire city.
