Category 7: The End of the World is a 2005 three-hour American made-for-television disaster miniseries and B movie that was broadcast in the United States on CBS in two parts, the first part aired on November 6 and the second on November 13. It was directed by Dick Lowry. A sequel to the 2004 miniseries Category 6: Day of Destruction, this film starts directly after the events shown in that film. The new director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) must continue to contend with the massive storm system that hit Chicago in the first film. The storm has continued to gain strength, spawning additional storms around the world, with three converging over Washington, D.C., and forming a massive category 7 hurricane (although no tropical cyclone scale has a category numbered 7).
