Godspeed to all in Ike's path.

Is it yours or ours? Don’t even want to consider ‘both’.

What’s with this westward shift? That’s not what we wanted to see.

I noticed with Fray, Hanna and Gustav just how good the NHC is getting at predicting the path of big hurricanes. I used to joke that the one thing I know for sure is that 3 days out, where ever the NHC says it’s going is safe from the hurricane. lol, Not any more, I am very impressed with thier skill this season.

We’ve got friends with a second home in the Houston area...they were planning on driving back to California tomorrow, but we got an email this morning indicating they’re hanging back a couple of days to study Eisenhower’s trajectory.

Starting to look like a Texas storm.
Note to Texas FReepers: just an observation, not an attempted jinx on you....

Looks like it’s pretty much followed the predicted path so far. The brunt of the hurricane will not hit Miami.

I’m in Houston. You can bet that everyone here will be watching this one very closely.

Long way to go before knowing where Ike will make ultimate landfall. Hang in there.

You are right although they did miss Fay pretty badly. They did say they knew why they were missing it tho.

"Godspeed to all in Ike's path." Thanks.
I'm relieved to see the forecasted track by-passing my home place.
Head's up Texans.

You do a great service here NN. I’m still watching and waiting here in the Lower Keys. My neighbor across the street just left for Orlando. Says he thinks it’s likely we only get CAT 1 or so winds here, but he’s already taken off work as of a few days ago, and he’s going to go visit The Mouse.
Looks better every advisory for us here, but I’ll breathe easier when it moves inland over Cuba.

Great Inagua, Bahamas taking the full fury of Ike's center.

On the previous thread someone said that the track is the same as the Galveston Hurricane of 1900, the last one to run the length of Cuba.
To: jsh3180
If Ike continues W movement, Gitmo will not get the full force of the eyewall. Ike has made mince meat of smaller land masses thus far. The big question is what the storm will do as it nears Cuba.
