Fay's here and she's got company

Sometimes I look at a web site where this local kook analyzes local media. He loves to pick on weather people and insisted last week that the scattered storms on Saturday night were a result of TS Fay. After I spit out Diet Coke all over my computer screen and cleaned up the mess I thought a little about how many times we have actually seen tropical moisture here and quite frankly I can count the number of times we have seen significant precipitation on one hand. That could be changing though. I not hoping for a hurricane to make landfall, especially in Louisiana but if this scenario does occur we could have a better chance of this moisture getting caught in a system moving in from the west. Here's an interesting look at the possibilities:

Here is the 0Z Wednesday or Tuesday at 8:00pm. It has Gustav making landfall sometime early on Tuesday morning. You can see a surface front to the north so there's a small chance this moisture could get caught up in it and head our direction. Let's hope that's the case. Here is the other interesting scenario the models are creating. Hanna moves over Cuba late Tuesday and looks to be on track for the Gulf.
