1. Yikes
Probably because of all the Katrina coverage I feel that this is going to be a bad one.

4. Looks to be a glancing blow
with the worst of the storm going over a hundred miles north of the island.

It's still going to be a miserably wet and windy day and night.

I hope the damned thing turns before it threatens Haiti. People there still have little shelter.
