9/4 - 4:30pm - Gustav Moisture, Hanna and Ike

So far we haven't been to lucky with the moisture left over from Gustav. It's sliding northeast and is positioned to our west, so we're not going to get too much rain out of it. Nevertheless, a line of showers will come through tonight and a chance for rain exists through tomorrow night as well. No more 90's for the rest of the week and into next week!

Here's an update on Hanna and Ike:



Hannah will briefly reach Category 1 status before making landfall in North Carolina this weekend. Here's the spaghetti chart for it:


(NOTE: The CLP5 and XTRP lines on the chart are not to be used as forecast tracks)

Hurricane Ike is at a Category 4 right now and is expected to weaken to a Category 2 tomorrow. It's forecast to strengthen near the Bahamas this weekend.



There's no real consensus or guidance on whether it will hit land yet, but it doesn't look like it'll go into the Gulf of Mexico at this point:
