Hurricane Gustav Update

Gustav made landfall in SE Louisiana as a Category 2 hurricane, spawning numerous tornadoes from the Florida Panhandle to Louisiana.

Throughout the day, television reporters trained their cameras on New Orleans flood walls and levees, while officials at the Army Corps of Engineers said they believed the barriers would not be breached. Later in the afternoon a private levee outside of New Orleans developed trouble.

Next up? Hanna, which could even end up way up here in New England!
