There used to be a TV commercial for a stock brokerage named E.F. Hutton. Their tag-line motto was, "When E.F. Hutton talks, people listen."
The segway here is to talk about Ed Mahmoud's gift for weather forecasting. Last year, more than a week before Hurricane Katrina made landfall Ed made this very startling forecast:
POSSIBLE COMPLETE DESTRUCTION OF THE CITY OF NEW ORLEANS NEXT WEEK (Lets hope not, we just got our new well online just West of MSY and inside Bonne Carret spillway), GAS PRICES COULD RISE $0.25 OR MORE NEXT 10 DAYS!....The possible Gulf action may be named "Katrina", because this developing system in the Bay of Campeche may get the name "Jose" before moving into Mexico.
Not long ago, Ed gave another very startling forecast at GCP (#43)
END OF MID-ATLANTIC AS WE KNOW IT UPDATE...I think this is the one, a repeat of the 1938 New York Cat 3, but at more than a week away, can’t quite be 100% certain yet.
