Hurricane Gustav

It’s funny how this time it seems like they’re overreacting. I’m all for being prepared, but Jindal is already asking for a federal state of disaster declaration.

:picard:

Are you kidding me? The 5 day cone shows it could hit anywhere from Texas to Florida ON TUESDAY but you asked for a disaster declaration yesterday?

^^ i say let’em drown.

looks like its gonna hit just west of that toilet bowl New Orleans and hit alot of oil platforms on the way.

$4.50 a gallon for gas soon? :ohnoes:

sort’a missssss hurricanes , get a week off work drink and eat all the food in the feezer…

/\ this one broke out our front sliding door it was crazy and 1/2 of a porch landed on my new type-s … and back in 2003 my community was evacuated because we where on the shore… I had to spend 2 days in a shelter by my self … man do I have some crazy storys about that place …

If N.O. gets hammered again and the gov’t throws them more money to bail them out again, im moving to canada

If N.O. gets hammered again I think they should get mother natures message.

“get the fuck out of there”

700 buses that can hold, lets say 60 (more in tome of need)… thats 42,000+ ppl/trip.

On friday, they should be able to make 4 trips.

168,000 people, if needed, state aid should evacuate. That number alone is for the welfare, insurance, and unemployment scamming individuals that piggy back the system. And if they can’t make it to the damn bus, I couldn’t even feel sorry.

if this huurcane hits Florida and I don’t get to go on vacation again (for the 4th time) I am gonna be pissed.

It just became of Category 4 hurricane with top winds near 145mph.

seeing the videos of hurricanes makes me want to go stand in the wind.

Ugh massive amounts of people from New Orleans are going to end up in Dallas…

Told you guys the gulf was plenty warm enough for this to develop big time.

on ch. 4 they were talking about it likely going up to cat 5 soon but back down to 4 by landfall

A 4 at landfall will totally fuck things up.

Katrina was a 3 at landfall.

150mph winds strong cat 4. It weakened a bit going over Cuba but still has the opportunity to become a Cat 5 in the Gulf. This is not good.

i’m going to start stocking up on cans of creamed corn for my storm cellar.

God bless the people down there, shit, I’ve been through 7 hurricanes. They suck.

this should be fun…i leave on a road trip to Galveston TX tomorrow morning…was supposed to drive through LA…guess not now…that just added a couple hours to my trip. This should be interesting.

Woahhhh. This thing blew the fuck up today. Still sitting at 140MPH sustained winds WHILE interacting with the land of Cuba. Way moreso than they predicted as well. I don’t think they foresaw this thing getting to cat 4 strength let alone a strong cat 4.

Not looking good for the gulf coast.

ugh… this is going to be BAD!

i may end up being at ground zero if they start taking vol’s for disaster clean up…
