Still kind of early to tell. I don't think these things ever follow the exact projected path.

I usually believe that but Gustav sure stuck to the script for the final week or so.

I thought it jogged west a little more than expected. I know initially they were saying that it was going to hit at the mouth of the Mississippi. Where ever it lands, I wish you well, and hope it doesn't cause too many losses.
