    I know its too early to accurately predict, but do you think Ike will make it to the Gulf?

    The models are showing a curve to the north as Ike nears the bahamas, but it is definitely very early to call right now.
    If IKE enters the Gulf, then, we are essentially looking at another major hurricane landfall in the Gulf.

    Some models are showing possible entry into the gulf.

    This is getting interesting.

    With the current GFDL model, it looks bad for Corpus.

    I hope in the end, I'll be packing for the beach and not packing for evac.
