Eh, I think it’ll be a Cat. 3 when it gets to the mainland of Mexico/Texas, unless it only grazed the Yucatan Pen.

If it crosses the Yuc. it will lose a bit of steam, and won’t have enough time to reignite to get to a devastating cat 4-5 storm again in time.

^^ but it will most likely slow down and it will have time to re-strengthen over the warm gulf water before another landfall
