Hurricane Felix is Fierce

Tons of Hurricane Felix info at The Intersection. It's apparently the fastest storm to hit category 5, just 51 hours (it's come down to a weak 4 now) and it seems the first two storms of the year have hit cat 5. The 1960s had a lot of hurricanes including 6 cat 5s and this decade looks to be stronger with 8 already. Sure 2005 had 4 storms, the question is, is it an anomaly or a pattern?
