Oil Rig Fire
      Fri Apr 23 2010 10:31 AM

Have any of you taken a look at currents / winds to see where the oil is moving to?
"Up to 336,000 gallons could spill into the Gulf, based on the amount of oil the rig pulled out daily, O'Berry told CNN. And up to 700,000 gallons of diesel fuel could also leak, Coast Guard Petty Officer Ashley Butler said."
"A 1-by-5-mile sheen of crude oil mix has spread across the Gulf of Mexico's surface around the area where an oil rig exploded and sank, a Coast Guard lieutenant said Thursday."
The oil rig was 52 miles southeast of Venice, Louisiana,
It would a awful if the oil made it's way to the LA shoreline even worse if it made it to the FL Coast line.

(Post was moved to the appropriate Forum - it was off-topic for the Main Page thread.)
