Hypothetical Hurricanes Wiki: If It's Destructive, Write About It. "A Category 7 is a hypothetical rating beyond the maximum rating of Category 5, which is not or will never be in discussion of adding this rating to the Saffir-Simpson Scale. A storm of this magnitude would most likely have winds between 225 and 245 mph, And minimum pressure of maybe 835-843 millibars. The storm would be maybe just as big as Typhoon Tip, maybe even larger, have and eye as small as only 1 mile wide or as large as 300 miles, The tropical storm wind field may extend out twice as far than the largest tropical storm wind field recorded, and the hurricane wind field would also be twice as large."

I'm completely confused by this. Is this a joke ... ?

This feels in poor taste as a non-hypothetical cat 5 storm is bearing down again on the Caribbean.
