    Default Hurricane Gustav watch

    .. it should be hitting New Orleans pretty soon, could be as bad or worse than Katrina, I think it's a Category 3 storm now, the whole city of New Orleans has been ordered a mandatory evacuation and people who choose to stay will have to fend for themselves.

    www.cnn.com for more, anyways thoughts?

    The storm has now been upgraded to Catagory 5

    This catagory can reach up to windspeeds of up to 125MPH and is the strongest catagory

    And yes, there has been a matadory evacuation,

    I believe that the winds as we speak are getting stronger and are already up to 30-50MPH

    I just hope for the best as they have only just finished re-building after the Hurricane 3 years ago

    I dont know how they make up these names for the Hurricanes, there so silly!

    Well if you're laughing at that I can laugh at the fact you don't type proper English. All lowercase isn't English, haha.
    That's why we seize the moment, try to freeze it and own it, squeeze it and hold it cause we consider these minutes golden.

    So I guess it was nowhere near as bad as expected, but still lots and lots of flooding though

    Lol didn't really think it through when they said "It won't be downgraded" when it's now a category 2 hurricane. So now it's not going to be as bad as Katrina, but still quite bad.
