This is a very experimental output. It did well on Ivan and other test storms, but has not been formally validated! Use at your own risk - see our disclaimer before you whine about anything.

This data is based on the past track and 120 hour forecast from the National Hurricane Center (NHC). Caution: they are only as good as the forecast!!.

Production data and leaseholder information from the Minerals Management Service as of May 2005. Impact estimates based on wind and wave damage computed by TAOS Version 12.0X.

Look at the map and the data below. These are only rough estimates but I thought this was good info.

Interesting. Doesn't look encouraging for the short term.

It gets worse...the models are going to shift E at 11 am... Rita is going to plow right through the heart of the gulf's oil/gas industry.

Gas is going to spike again, no doubt about it.
