"Hurricane Laura shares something in common with both Hurricane Florence, a 2018 storm that killed 52 Americans, and Hurricane Katrina, which struck Louisiana 15 years ago this week. All three changed from more typical hurricanes into severe ones in just a day or two.

That kind of rapid intensification — to use the scientific term for it — used to be rare. In recent years, it has become more common."

The Category 4 hurricane Laura strengthened from Cat 1 in 1 day - not enough time for warning
