    How can I add the category description by placing code before the loop sequence in the index.php file?

    I figured out that I can place this on the main category page and it will show the category title and then the description,

    
...

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

<?php $this_category = get_category($cat);?>

<dt><?php echo $this_category->cat_name; ?></dt>
<dl><?php echo $this_category->category_description; ?></dl>

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> 

...
