Adrestia Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 This bad boy is already at Category 3. They predict that it will strengthen to a 4 when it's in warm, open gulf water.

Justin86 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 I think I heard on the radio that Gustav is a Cat 2. I hope everyone from NO and the surrounding area takes the advice of their politicians and gets out before it hits this time. If they don't, it's their fault.

jenna311 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 [quote name='SaintOlaf' post='1641476' date='Aug 29 2008, 01:14 PM'] they should have named the storm Geraldine, or something cooler than Gustav. Gustav makes me think of the local german meat seller with the thick german accent. [/quote] Had to be a male name, since the last one was Fay. I liked the Gaston suggestion though... Heard on the news page that it reached a category 3....prayers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your DJ has old inofrmation.

News over here is typically delayed 24 hours if it's on TV or the radio. [quote]...because everyone there has a car full of gas and out-of-state relatives willing to take them in?
