[SEL] Huricane Gustav

[Mark Shulaw]

Last I heard Gust was at Cat 4 and they usually weaken a bit as they get in 
close to shore as the water is relatively shallow in the gulf nearer shore. 
Katrina was cat 5 in open water but weakened to 4? before landfall If I 
remember right.
  Will keep you in mind and have a drink for you when it comes ashore. Good 
Luck!!!         Mark
