consider this

they delayed a few hours or more before finally agreeing the hurricane was, in fact a hurricane. (from Joe Bastardi...it irritated him early this morning that they didn't consider it a hurricane....) that is why there is an "apparent explosion"....it is simply going through a normal escalation into a cat 4-5 hurricane....

remember

gulf of mexico.

high sst's....

New Orleans could get hit as easily as anyone else. the models have swung twice since I logged on this morning.

they will swing again...

if anyone thinks they are out of the woods...it is wishful thinking....
