"Slowed down" is in reference to how quickly it's rotating: Category 5 to Cat 3.
This can happen when a hurricane hits land, but it's not 100% certain.
As for being "punked". No. We weren't. We were given a prediction of the future from current data. As we got closer to landfall, the predictions were updated.
By its nature, even an educated guess is still a guess. And a hurricane has many ways it can kill. Not just winds and storm surges, but flooding. It's much better to respond to the threat and warn people to evacuate than guess it'll go better and it goes worse.
