Track Hurricane Gustav’s path as it approaches landfall

You can click on the image above, or here, to visit the National Hurricane Center’s tracking map for Hurricane Gustav, which is currently on a path that will lead it to landfall on the Louisiana coastline west of New Orleans sometime early Monday morning.

One critical question to watch: How far west of New Orleans? The worst winds, storm surges and rainfall occur to the east of a hurricane’s eye, raising the wrenching possibility that the worst of Gustav could score a more direct hit on the city than Katrina did. According to the latest NHC advisory, issued at 1 p.m. Central time today, Gustav is expected to bring 12-16 foot storm surges, though they could be higher if the storm is at Category 4 when it reaches land. The worst of Katrina’s surges reached 20 feet.

If I may, I've created a rather new website called <a href='http://www.personalhurricanecenter.com title='Personal Hurricane Center.com'>Personal Hurricane Center.com I've recently added forecast tracks, computer forecast models, surface observations, radar and satellite imagery, and more. I believe this info will come in quite handy for this in the path of Gustav and Hanna (don't forget Ike coming off the African coast!).

It’s been two weeks now since the Hurricane Gustav’s landfall. Could we say it was over? And if it is, then for how long? Is there a guarantee that the population of this disastrous area won’t be facing a new storm in the future as it did many times in the past?

There is a pattern here. The Nature obviously wants something from us. What?

The Nature wants us to synchronize with it in its qualities of altruism and bestowal. Only then we could avert a bleak scenario for our lives and experience harmony. As of now, we are in the state of a complete oppositeness to it.

This is not some belief or nice way of thinking. The science of Kabbalah is a method to actually achieve it. Bnei Baruch Learning Center is hosting a free, live interactive video course introducing authentic Kabbalah, and clarifying its purpose and use: http://www.kabbalah.info/course/crisis/
