Re: Hurricane Gustav
The storm is now down to a cat 2 w 110 mile per hour winds... the eye should be in soon they are saying,

The leevies are not being breached in new orleans at this time which is a good thing however the surges are beginning to top them... its not near as bad yet as it was in Katrina ... yet.... there for now is just a lot of sign damage and some windows etc in NO... the damage so far appears to be in the french quarter only really...

There are tons of tornados from florida to Miss.. so pray for them also....

There is also a new tropical depression... Ike forming

The worst part of this storm currently is expected to hit in the next hour as far as the actual eye...

The reason no one has posted is probably a lack of power.. just thought id let you know Sis Alvear.

Re: Hurricane Gustav
They have just reported that there was just a barge that somehow broke loose and is in the industrial canal and the coast guard is going to attempt to get it because this is what happened in Katrina that broke the leevie... they are trying to find and fix this now.

Re: Hurricane Gustav
I've only heard bits and pieces of the news this morning, is it correct that this made landfall as a Cat 3, and has weakened to a Cat 2?

Re: Hurricane Gustav
They are now confirming that it is not just 1 barge but there are a total of 3 vessels loose in the canal. One is banging against the sewer system and they are trying to remove it from the sides and restrain it so that it does not breech... they have now just found a person in the water... (ok they got the person out of the water)
