Guess Whose Heading Our Way?

Hurricanes Hannah, Ike, and Josephine and are all heading West accross the Pacific - South-Florida's way.
Hurricane Gustaf just missed Miami, hurtling towards New Orleans and the Gulf of Mexico.

This fantastic satelite pic gives a clear indication of the vicinity of the storms: Hannah is just East of Cuba, over Haiti; and Ike is looming behind. According to weather forecasters, Ike has potential to reach Category 5 hurricane strenght within a week. The last storm of that magnitute was Hurricane Andrew in '92, and it obliterated large parts of Miami.

We're holding our breaths.
