Just a quick update…there are no major changes to the forecast of Hurricane Gustav.  However, as noted on the Personal Hurricane Center.com Tracking Chart, Gustav is soon to be heading over a warm pool of water similar in temperatures to that which caused the amazing intensification yesterday.  Does this mean Gustav will see new peaks?  Not likely has the structure of Gustav is rather ragged, asymmetrical, and no clear eye.  Nonetheless, this could help Gustav organize a little better and it is likely to become a category five for a short period of time.
