WxChaser Notes - John Wetter
The thought process of the day...

Well, here we are 3 years after Katrina and we have another (currently category 4) hurricane headed for the lower Mississippi. Bands and even the eye of the storm can currently be seen from the Key West, Florida radar.
Let’s hope people pay attention to the warnings this time and get outta town. I still wonder when we’ll really ask the question of whether it makes sense to rebuild homes in a bowl that is about 6 feet below sea level right next to the gulf of Mexico. That’s a discussion for some other time.
Either way, stay up to date with Gustav at the NHC.
