Don't know what I'd do without SciGuy during hurricane season.
So what's Gustav up to, anyway?For starters, it's now an 80 mph hurricane with a distinct eye and showing signs of further strengthening, as expected. The official forecast track has remained centered upon Louisiana, and has edged only slightly westward, reflecting the most recent model guidance.
Since this afternoon the models have come into somewhat better agreement, with a handful swinging east from Texas and the GFDL coming west from New Orleans. In effect they met in the middle.
i'd prefer us to NOLA.
if it has to hit somewhere...
someone semi-populated, evacuated and NOT NOLA>
Totally agree with you, Kuff. When the forecast calls for hot air (TV reports), I read SciGuy to get the facts.
