Category 4 Gustav heads for Cuba
GUSTAV
UPDATE, 12:20 pm: A new National Hurricane Center bulletin says Gustav’s winds are now at around 145 mph, making it an extremely dangerous Category Four storm. Gustav is only an hour or so from landfall on Cuba’s Isle of Youth, with landfall on the main island expected this evening.
ORIGINAL TEXT: Gustav has reached major-hurricane strength, with 125 mph winds, as it approaches the Isle of Youth and western Cuba. That’s a Category Three on the Saffir-Simpson scale of hurricane strength.
As to where it’s headed after Cuba: the official forecast track sends it toward New Iberia, La., coming ashore sometime Monday. Some of the computer models, though, have it curving left before landfall, back into the Gulf.
Bottom line: We’re still not completely sure where Gustav’s going, but the odds of it being Louisiana are going up sharply. Respected hurricane forecaster Jeff Masters has already said New Orleans residents need to leave, and though (as of this writing) no official evacuation order has come, a lot of people are agreeing.
Here’s the latest from the Associated Press.
