We're going to feel the effects of Hannah this weekend. I hope hubby gets home from his business trip before it hits. Boat owners are being told to get them out of the water if they can. Both my BILs have boats moored in RI. If Hannah's path goes a little more eastward it may miss the Carolinas and go straight up north. Still won't be anything like Gustav (which bugged us for the entire time we were in SC, VA and PA) and they aren't sure where Ike is going. Trends indicate this year is the more northern part of the east coast's time to get hit.

Hurricane IKE looks to be taking a track like Andrew in 1992.

Could THIS one hit New Orleans?? Is that poor city going to have to make another mass evacuation?
Also, how close is IKE going to get to Miami?

I don't know how much Miami will be affected but earlier tonight I did hear that tourists were told to evacuate the Keys.
