Picking an exact hit on a storm that is supposed to stall some before it hits is tough to do.

What does look likely is that NO will at the very least be on the nasty side of the eye which is never a good place to be.

They will definitely get some surge, question is how much.

I don't think anyone here wishes damage, hurt, or loss of life on anyone, anywhere.

Thanks for the update. No, I wish no harm on anyone. It's my wish that Gustav peters out in the Gulf, but it doesn't look like that will happen.

The BYU worst case scenario was (and maybe still is) for the eye to come ashore to the right of the city. That way, Lake Pontchartrain to the north fills up and overtops the levees. Much like happened with Katrina.
