[I say that as someone with family in Bay St. Louis, MS who had everything wiped out by Katrina.] I pray to God most every waking hour that Gustav weakens before coming ashore. I'd also like it to go a bit west---not because I want the area that got Hurricane Rita to be hit again, but purely because there are fewer people in harm's way the further west you go in Louisiana. Also, if it goes west, the storm surge will be lower based on how the coastline goes [as I remember it]. I can believe it, man. This is just part of life along the coastal regions.
