National Weather Service projected that Gus could become a Cat. 5 with a line on the upper Texas coast. Other models have it from New Orleans to Belize. Definitely worth a watch.

RUN AWAY!!!!!!!

This one is gonna be a monster by the time it makes landfall. I don't think we'll know where it's going until Sat/Sun.

I am working like a mad-woman making sure everything on my desk is entered - I expect to be "shut off" from writing new or increasing coverage by Weds afternoon. Once it hits the western gulf - we are CUT OFF.

Actually, we'd like to have a 3 horse slant w/ a gooseneck. Eventually that's what we'll end up with...I don't really have a choice really, LOL.

Do not let this beast sneak up on anybody. It has dropped to a tropical storm but there is a lot of very warm water in the GOM. Upper Texas coast to Corpus should be glued to the news. I am a pragmatist and not an alarmist. Having been slammed hard by Rita was all it took.
