Last I heard from weather people, cat 6 is not really needed, wonder if that changed recently.

With NOAA's cuts, the only way I think cat 6 will be add is Trump wants to be the one to create that level and scientists state it is not really needed :)

The title is wrong, this is about using a completely different scale system.

		I read the article and with the title in mind, it made no sense. So I defaulted to the title.

		Yeah we get it that you think climate change is a hoax.

Probably the other way around, so he can send FEMA and money to Florida and ignore blue states.

Nah, a hurricane that wipes out Mar-a-Lago will get the same FEMA attention as a hurricane that wipes out Club Bedminster.

		You might want to read up on recent changes to FEMA. It’s now substantially (and intentionally) weaker than it was pre-Katrina. Trump more than rolled back all of the reforms that happened since then. Heck, in public statements, they patted themselves on the back for “job well done” when they were asked why they didn’t pick up the phone during or after the recent mass casualty event in Texas. I’m sure there’d be major federal responses and a special allocation of reconstruction funds if either of the Trump properties you mentioned got hit, but it wouldn’t happen via FEMA (and probably wouldn’t even go through congress).
