^ What you mean? Gustav is STILL KICKING ASS. It rained here for 3 days. Wasn't a level 5, but Ike's got it going on and may be once it hits the Gulf Stream or, God forbid, the Gulf of Mex.
Intensity forecast for Ike
Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) have warmed to 28.5°C and will warm an extra degree over the next two days. However, the shear is forecast to be unfavorable for intensification through Friday night: 20-30 knots. The high shear may be able to disrupt the inner core of Ike, reducing it to a Category 2 storm by Friday night. Re-intensification is likely beginning on Saturday morning, when the shear is forecast to fall below 10 knots. The shear is forecast to remain below 10 knots Saturday through Tuesday. On Sunday, when Ike may be approaching the southeastern Bahamas, it should encounter cooler waters stirred up by Hurricane Hanna. This may limit the re-intensification. Once Ike crosses Hanna's wake and enters the central and western Bahamas, the oceanic heat content reaches a maximum--80 kJ/cm^2, similar to the levels of heat content that fueled Gustav's rapid intensification south of Cuba. Ike may also be moving under an upper-level anticyclone then, which would provide very favorable conditions for intensification

You make it sound like 145 mph is just a light breeze.
GLPers are getting desperate for doom. Your not going to get it out of this storm either.

It's really discouraging.
The credit cards are maxed, my wife is about to find out about my many young hollywood starlet mistresses, the sheriff is coming tomorrow to evict us out of our multimillion $ mansion, and serve a warrant for my arrest on "crimes against humanity, small animals, plants, and fungi" (it's a new statute).
Was really hoping a nice big 10.0 EQ that EAT's been promising for decades now would wipe everything off the map and I could let out a final chuckle and scream "EAT, you finally got it right!", moments before being swallowed by the 5000ft tsunami.

Thats one of the reasons i moved outta south florida as i was born and raised there in 64 thru 89 when i moved outta there and headed to north carolina mountains and not because of the hurricanes but because i didnt feel it right to have to learn to speak spanish to be able to communicate to every other person i seen or came into contact with, and being born and raised there i watched what was a paradise quickly go downhill as bars went up on store/homes/trash/garbage started littering the hiways/beautiful homes became trashed out as this invasion started to take place in the 80,s
