Howdy all!
As I am writing this right before Labor Day of 2008, I usually recommend for everyone to come to Texas, but today I'd say, "Stay away from the Gulf Coast!" :laugh: That includes the coast of LA through the FL panhandle, too.
We're all hanging around waiting for this big wind called Gustav to give us a clue on which part of the coast it might converge. These things don't get our attention unless the forecast path pokes us square in the eye!
There seems to be a mass exodus in LA, but I'm not so sure it won't have a big affect on the Houston/Galveston area where we are located. The weather seems to be dropping down on us from the north and that will squirt this thing a little more to the west if it all sets up just right.
We shall see (and hope a big tree doesn't fall on us!) :clown:
