Re: New Orleans again?!

Gustav heading SW currently, NHC though might just say WSW. Gustav weaker going with the flow from the midlevel high over the florida straits and maybe alittle help from the upper low. Gustav will bring torrential rains to Jamaica and unless he passes directly over the island, he will strengthen to a hurricane again by Thursday sometime.

95L really needs to wait for that upper low to its west todo something. It may become a TD or a TS in the next 12-24hrs but it needs the upper low to move NW or SW and get out of the way to get a better flow aloft.
