F4 maybe?

P.S. on saturn or jupiter (the big one) there are tornados with the power equivalent of a F38, imagine that!
I believe dear Isabel was a cat. 4-5 when it was in the middle of the Atlantic. I think it calmed down a bit when approaching land, or something. Just to enlighten a bit, a cat.4-5 hurricane(i dont remember which) is RARE. The last one was Mitch(1998), and before that i believe was Andrew(-92)...
