Ferd- I agree- Looks like Lake Charles could get a direct hit. But Dr. Lyons on the Weather Channel said this am that it could curve west before it comes ashore and hit Texas. This one has everyone scratching their heads.

Re: Hurricane Gustav
Was on the phone to Sulphur Louisiana last night, looks like they will be told Sunday wether to evacuate or not, seems to me to be cutting it kind of close.
There was a 23 percent chance last night that the storm could diminish into a tropical storm rahter than come ashore as a hurricane. Will look again.

Well now it appears that Gustav is a category three hurricane with wiinds up to 122 miles per hour and is strengthening . Could be a category four by the time it hits Cuba.
Could strengthen even more over the gulf before hitting the Louisiana coastal area.

Re: Hurricane Gustav
I hope it goes directly west, missing the US altogether. (I know Mexico doesn't need a hurricane anymore than we do, but three years post-Katrina and the Gulf Coast is still a mess.)

Re: Hurricane Gustav
God can make it disappear...however those in it´s path should prepare. That is the wise thing to do.
