The timeing is everything.
The storm has weakend a little bit from a CAT 4 to a CAT 3 which is better news but this is still a bad storm. And there is still hurricane watches and warnings through a good amount of the gulf. Now I would like to make a very good point and that is even though this hurricane Gustav is now a CAT 3 and is expected to make land fall as a CAT 3 the wind speeds are still a big 111mph to 130mph in a CAT 3 storm!!!!! which can do major damage!!!!!
Flooding tornados storm surge are all big things to watch out for!!!!!
This storm's eye as of now is expected to make land fall between 3:00am and 6:00am tomorrow Sep 1st. Do know this storm has changed sooooooooo much in the past few hours and it could very well change again. This is a storm unlike any other I have seen befor hurricane wise!
All I can say is bless everyone in the path of this storm and stay safe!!!!!

Gustav is a CAT 4!!!!!
The purple is a CAT 4 and the White is a CAT 5 one of these is what it could be when it make's land fall it could be a CAT 5 in around 12 to 24 hours. This is something we really need to watch out for they are already getting people out of New Orleans,. There is as of now Hurricane watches out for LA, Everyone keep in tuch with any family or friend's that you might have down there. Stay safe this storm is really something!!!!!
Hurricane Gustav just keep's getting stronger.

The Red is a CAT 3 the Purple is a CAT 4. CAT 3 has wind speed's of around 111mph to 130mph A CAT 4 has wind speed's of around 131mph to 155mph that is some strong winds.
As this storm get's closer to land and watches or warnings get posted I will be sure to get them out to all you on this blog. LA, is already thinking about getting out. Just listen to the watches and warning's and stay safe.

Hurricane update!!!!!
Well Gustav is really winding up out there and he is not out there alone!!!!That's right there is another Hurricane out there and this one is called Hanna.
Still Gustav is the big one at this point in time and is still getting stronger by the
minute. Currently the modles are pointing this Hurricane to make land fall between
east TX, and west LA, as seen in the map below.
Now as you all know Gustav is still miles and miles out there so there is really a lot of time for it to change it's path will it though? That is why we watch these things very closely. You can see in this map below just how far out it is and what CAT it is. The red is a CAT 3 But it could became a CAT 4 by the time it hit's land.
Now Gustav like I said earlyer is not the only one out there now will talk about Hanna.

Here are some models as to were Hanna is expected to go you can see it may go back around near florida like Fay did. Again it dose still have time to change! This Hurricane could became a CAT 3 by the time it makes land fall Maybe even a CAT 4. This really has been a wild year for Hurricane's and the torpical area's. All I can say is for all who is in these area's around hurricane's take action be safe and be smart a Hurricane is not something to play around with.
I will keep this blog updated with the latest info on not only our weather back home in Indiana but also on the torpical area's. For some of us do have friend's and family in these area's. stay safe everyone and I'll check back soon.
Update on the way.
There is a lot to talk about Gustuv and another Hurricane out there
I'll have more on both of them here on the blog later today so
check back soon!!!!!
