Maria is expected to be at worst a very high end Cat 4 near PR. Not sure where you're getting CAT 3 from.
A lot of the structures in PR are poorly built, especially once out of the downtown area. Even those buildings are not what you would expect in a typical US city.
This hit on PR is particularly personal as it's one of my favorite vacation spots. A nice place called Isla Verde, about 20 miles to the East of San Juan is home to many ocean front resorts.
Agreed. Went on vacation there a few months ago. Resorts will be fine, but outside of that, I'm very concerned. Buildings quickly become less stable as you go inland.

I have a decent chunk of some of the free snow totals maps going back a week. I'll try and get those off of my phone and put them in an album at some point.

I had turned on TWC. The night before I had looked at my Local on the Eights and was stunned to see the 18-24 inch forecast. I knew what was coming, but couldn't grasp it until the night before. I barely got any sleep, and had the radar on. I dosed off, woke up at six, and saw the most impressive blob of white over DC, with no way out of it. Easily the best moment of my weather life, and truly got me interesting in snow, rather then hurricanes.
I have a saved photo of that radar still that I'm going to try and dig out so I can remissness.

Watching GMA, it's the same cam they sometimes show. I think ABC and Univision are partners. They've got a reporter on the ground in San Juan kinda just under that cam.
