Force 13 is not a reliable source
Force 13 is a self-published source: anyone can start a YouTube channel, Wikia wiki, etc. So their word means nothing here. Also, since we consider the NHC to be the absolute most reliable source on storm intensity, we adhere to them on all matters such as this. I know that a generous interpretation of the Dvorak technique suggests Gert may have been briefly a major hurricane, and that reconnaissance for Jose really should have supported Category 5 intensity initially, but unless and until the NHC says so, we can't include either.--Jasper Deng (talk) 19:47, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
