Weather Underground Hurricane Gustav

Latest forecast imagery from The Weather Underground

Are you in an area that’s being evacuated? Are you near the projected path of the storm? If so, we need your help. If you can, send us your information, pictures and video to gustav@interdictr.com. And if you have twitter, you can send information @interdictor.

If you’re not in the area, but want to help those who may be affected, we suggest donating to relief organizations who will be called in after Gustav passes through. The American Red Cross is one such organization, but there are others.

Thank you.

With the news of Hurricane Gustav heading towards the Loiusiana coastline, many people from the original Interdictor network started coming back together, to prepare for what could be a second catastrophe. I decided that this time, we could do better to help inform people and I have set up this blog, as well as a wiki and a twitter account for the receiving of updates from people.

Hopefully, like before, we can become not only a clearinghouse of useful information, but a way for people to get in contact, to share their experiences of Hurricane Gustav and more.

Stay tuned.
