Hurricane Hanna Going North Along East Coast; Hurricane Ike Coming Next
Hurricane Fay brought drenching rains to a large section of Florida. Hurricane Gustav went south of Florida [well, it did affect the Keys] and increased in strength as it went over the warm waters of the Gulf. However, it was not as strong as predicted as it headed into Louisiana after passing over the oil rigs in the Gulf. Now, Hurricane Hanna looks as it will have a greater effect on the US Open Tennis Tournament’s weekend schedule as we in Florida dodged another storm. BUT, Hurricane Ike seems to be heading to Florida with the power of its namesake’s European armies. It has been a Category 4 hurricane & now is a 3. Current National Hurricane Center track shows highest probability having Ike go between Florida pennisula and Cuba & then going into the Gulf. No prediction beyond that yet. If it gets into the Gulf and its warmer waters, where will it go. Too 
early to predict. All energy producers are watching intently as are interests in Florida.
