Sunday Evening....

Gustav is heading to the Louisiana coast and will make landfall tomorrow morning. I just talked with a good friend of mine who is a meteorologist in New Orleans, and he said it is quite strange seeing the city so empty.

Gustav's impact on New Orleans is still an unknown. The farther west along the LA coast it makes landfall, the better for NO....but if course that means problems for somebody else.

Looking at satellite images over the past couple of hours, it looks like Gustav is getting a touch better organized. So, I would not be surprised at all to see some strengthening this evening.

Hanna is lurking in the southwest Atlantic, and there are growing indications this would be a problem for the Carolinas down the road.

I am off today and am mainly away from the computer, but I will be in the weather office in the early morning hours tomorrow morning and will have plenty of info then.
