The key to Gustav's future track is the projected development of a weakness in the subtropical ridge across the lower Mississippi valley over the next 2-3 days. Without this feature, Gustav would more than likely continue WNW toward upper Mexico or lower Texas; with this feature, it will likely be drawn NW toward the northern Gulf coast. The key will be where this feature sets up, assuming it does set up. Watch this closely over the next couple of days; no one along the Gulf coast is out of the threat zone with this one right now.
