This is the latest satellite photo from NOAA.
Hurricane Gustav whacked Haiti yesterday and lost some strength. It's now a tropical storm with winds of 60 MPH. BUT forecasts show it moving in the Gulf of Mexico in the next few days where very warm water will allow it to blow-up to a major (Cat. 3) and maybe a super (Cat. 5) Hurricane.
Gasoline alley and New Orleans are are in his sights. I believe we are in for another 'Katrina' or 'near-Katrina' event this Labor Day Weekend.
For all you gas guzzler owners there out there (that's you too Minivan Mamma): best fill-up now while you can get it cheap. Bloomberg currently puts oil's price at $118 to $119.
Here is their comment as gotten from a meteorologist:
"`The entire Gulf is under the gun from Gustav,'' said Jim Rouiller, a senior energy meteorologist with Planalytics Inc., a forecaster based in Wayne, Pennsylvania, whose clients include oil companies. ``Gustav represents a real and potentially dangerous storm for the entire Gulf energy production region.''"
