• If a Category 5 storm with wind speeds of 250 kilometres per hour is heading for you, you prepare differently than you would for a Category 1 with wind speeds of 65 km/h.
• In a hotter world, cyclones are expected to become less common but more intense when they do form.
• Only one hurricane in the Western Hemisphere has yet gone past the 309 km/h winds the researchers nominate for a Category 6.
• And the whole idea of storm scales, including Australia’s own tropical cyclone scale, is that Category 5 storms are those likely to do catastrophic damage.

What are storm scales for?

• There are several different intensity scales in use.
• Different scales are used in the Australian, North Indian, Southwest Indian, and western North Pacific basins.
• Tropical Cyclone Oswald, a 2013 Category 1 storm, led to heavy rainfall and flooding through Queensland and New South Wales, while the 1992 Category 5 Hurricane Andrew caused catastrophic wind damage – but little rain or storm surge damage when it hit Florida.

So do we really need a Category 6?

• But this is the only one which meets their criteria in the last 40 years, as it was well observed by US aircraft missions.
• The Australian Tropical Cyclone Scale has different thresholds but similar reasoning for a Category 5 storm.
• Based on the understanding that winds at Category 5 and above lead to catastrophic outcomes, it’s hard to see how adding a Category 6 would help the public.
• If a Category 5 means “expect catastrophic consequences”, what would Category 6 mean?

How can we best communicate cyclone threats?

• Scientists came up with tropical cyclone intensity scales as a way to clearly communicate the nature and size of the damage likely to occur.
• Fundamentally, these scales are meant to measure how well our buildings and infrastructure can survive the wind force and also protect us.

• Recent MobileMT™ survey results at Ursa and Orion significantly upgraded the prospectivity of the area, making the addition of Titan a focus for the Cosa team.
• Our uranium portfolio is nearing 200,000 hectares in the Athabasca Basin region, and we will continue to seek opportunities to advance and diversify our portfolio of highly prospective uranium projects.
• We would like to thank the team at CanAlaska for their cooperation in completing the Titan agreement expeditiously and in the best interest of both companies."
• The Project will cover 22 kilometres of the Larocque Lake trend which hosts the Hurricane uranium deposit, the Larocque Lake uranium zone, and the Alligator Lake uranium zone (Figure 2).

• Raymond Ashley, President of F3 and incoming CEO of F4, commented: "The F4 Properties demand greater attention from the drill bit and from the market.
• The proposed terms of the Arrangement provide that, among other things, F3 will transfer the Properties to F4 in exchange for F4 Shares.
• F3 shareholders will receive F4 Shares on the basis of one F4 Share for every 10 common shares of F3 held at the record date of the Arrangement.
• In addition, it is proposed that upon the creation of F4, F3 shall make a strategic investment into F4, providing sufficient capital to complete the Spin-Out and Listing.
