Seems as though IVAN took the southern bypass around Jamaica, not that
that has spared them much. However, currently at CAT 4 the forecast as
it moves towards Cuba is a CAT5 and then a CAT4 as it skirts the west
coast of Florida. This certainly must be a storm that has/will affect
more of the populus in the region than ones before.



It looks as if the Cayman Islands are in for it next.


From the current warning digest posted by Louis, Florida landfall is
predicted for Sarasota, passing through to North Carolina. That's going
to be incredibly messy, as it will most likely pass straight over the
Orlando metro area, as well as Kissimmee and possibly Cape Canaveral too.



Canaveral on the Eastern side of Florida, so it won't be affected by a
direct hit, but it will still blow a bit. I can't recall any mission for
launch during coming day....
