re: Johnson on first week as Speaker: ‘This is like an F5 hurricane

Well, I’m from Louisiana,” Johnson said at his first official press conference as Speaker, when asked how his first week has been. “So I describe everything in either football or hurricane metaphors.” “Let me say, this is like an F5 hurricane,” he continued. “It’s been a whirlwind, but in a great way.”

Well I’m from louisiana and I have never heard anyone refer to a Hurricane with an “f” designation instead of a “cat” designation. Ever.
