Often when a storm like Gustav hits the mountains of Haiti and land mass they tend to bounce off "funny" and not always where you expect them to. There is something about the interaction with land and especially in an area like this where the land mass isn't big and suddenly it's in the water again. The path of a storm has to be smoothed out over time.

Radar from Cuba looks like it has started moving wnw however it's a hard radar to read and he is still dealing with the effect the sudden interaction with land had to his center.

Both in strength and size and we need to wait it out a few hours, six or so to see just what Gus is all about.
