lets see how this thread goes, compared to the Gustav one...
..EVACUATIONS INITIATED FOR PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHEAST TEXAS
COASTAL COUNTIES...
.AT 1100 AM EDT...1500Z...THE CENTER OF HURRICANE IKE WAS LOCATED
NEAR LATITUDE 23.9 NORTH...LONGITUDE 85.3 WEST OR ABOUT
225 MILES... 365 KM...WEST-SOUTHWEST OF KEY WEST FLORIDA AND
ABOUT 430 MILES... 690 KM...SOUTHEAST OF THE MOUTH OF THE
MISSISSIPPI RIVER.
ALTHOUGH THE CENTER OF IKE MOVED LITTLE OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS...
THE HURRICANE IS GENERALLY MOVING TOWARD THE WEST-NORTHWEST NEAR
8 MPH...13 KM/HR. A WEST-NORTHWESTWARD MOTION IS EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS...WHICH WOULD TAKE IKE
THROUGH THE CENTRAL GULF OF MEXICO.
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE NOW NEAR 90 MPH...150 KM/HR...WITH
HIGHER GUSTS. IKE IS A CATEGORY ONE HURRICANE ON THE SAFFIR-
SIMPSON SCALE. ADDITIONAL STRENGTHENING IS EXPECTED AND IKE COULD
BE A MAJOR HURRICANE TOMORROW. IKE IS A LARGE TROPICAL
CYCLONE. HURRICANE FORCE WINDS EXTEND OUTWARD UP TO 80 MILES...
130 KM...FROM THE CENTER...AND TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS EXTEND
OUTWARD UP TO 205 MILES...335 KM. |

i know...no one is going to say about Corpus Christi or Houston. but you mention the words "new" and "orleans" and everyone's like, "OMGWTFYOUIDIOTFORLIVINGTHERE:eyespop: :eyespop: :eyespop: :eyespop: :eyespop: " |

yes, there is a need of this thread. IKE is a stronger storm compared to Gustav.
i'm curious as to how many people are going to evacuate. all it takes is for tons of people to leave and then nothing happens to set a precidence.
i hope this thing hits houston and s it up royally.
edit,
david you can evacuate up to my place if need be:o |
