The Saffir-Simpson Wind Scale is a categorical classification of hurricanes based on their wind speed, used by the U.S. government's National Hurricane Center. To qualify as a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane intensity scale, maximum sustained winds must exceed 155 mph (135 kt).
This is a GOES or METEOSAT infrared satellite picture of a portion of the tropical Atlantic basin. If tropical systems develop, we will display a sector that focuses on the storm in either the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea and western Atlantic, the northwestern Atlantic, or the eastern Atlantic.
