Florida Sammich Incoming? Oy Gevalt!
Two [future] hurricanes are now being tracked bound for the south eastern US. Gustav's Cone of Death shows it likely bound for the Mid-Gulf coast on Tuesday. Hannah's Cone shows it just off the coast of Florida Tuesday. Given the enormous size of hurricanes and their surrounding storms and such, Florida may be looking at some freaking weird and crazy weather. Think of two Cat 2/3 hurricanes close enough to interact at least on the fringe.
Floridians should be praying that the eyes of these storms wind up on the far edges of these probability cones. If they wind up on the inside, we could be seeing some really unique weather. Of course I don't know much about mereorology so it could wind up being just rainy, but it looks like it could be interesting at least.
Track and observe them here:

dotdudeLast night our local weatherman, Bob Breck, was showing historical paths of hurricanes that followed the route Gustav is taking. The majority of them either hit Texas or Florida. There were two that hit Louisiana - one going back to 1890. I found Bob Breck's Your Weather Authority Blog.
choggieJosephine is the scamp to watch....got my money on her ass having a Satanic Steering Wheel, with some OCD hellion at the helm....
Doc_M^Uhhhh, what? You lost me at Josephine.
Anyway, Hannah is steering south, so Florida is out of the woods for the most part on that one. Louisiana still looks screwed however. Abandon ship.
dotdudeJosephine has 40 mph winds off the coast of Africa. Choggie, I hope you haven't jinxed her.
Doc_MAaaaaand Hannah has reversed course again and is headed north to smack Georgia, then follow through to my neck of the woods as a tropical storm. That should be fun!
dotdudeTropical storms can do some damage too. Good luck.
