Heading for New Orleans................
Since Katrina was supposed to make landfall in Seagrove, I am not convinced we're in the clear yet.
IMO it's going to curve and whomp us!

At least we have the possiblity of real drama from hurricanes to rescue us from the contrived drama of our daily lives. What will we do with ourselves after hurricane season?
I've been gardening and cleaning the house - that's like an engraved invitation to a hurricane, which is why I'm convinced it's coming here!

...my freezer is packed with steak, shrimp and fish--that means, "run for the hills!"

Because Gustav is weak and disorganized, and because there are many weather systems in the area that could push it around, my guess is that it'll wander quite a bit. I wouldn't change my plans. What the heck, a category 2 hurricane will give you some fun stories for the folks back home!

I don't think so.
"Gustav intensified from a tropical depression at 11 am yesterday to a Category 1 hurricane last night in just 16 hours, tying Hurricane Humberto's record--set just last year--for the fastest intensification from first advisory to a Category 1 hurricane.." Weather Underground/Tropical Jeff Masters
