Woke up to this headline on MSN/MSNBC homepage this morning...


Category 2 Gustav plows through Caymans

Strengthening hurricane’s projected track to carry it to La. by Tuesday

updated 1 hour, 55 minutes ago
GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands - Gustav swelled to a Category 2 hurricane early Saturday with winds near 100 mph after plowing through the Cayman Islands toward Cuba, gathering strength on a journey that could take it to the U.S. Gulf Coast as a fearsome Category 3 storm three years after Hurricane Katrina.

Gustav, which killed 71 people in the Caribbean, hit the Caymans Friday with fierce winds that tore down trees and power lines. It was expected to cross Cuba’s cigar country Saturday and head into the Gulf of Mexico by Sunday.
