The Times-Pic has a good Hurricane Center set up on their homepage. I'll keep an eye out for some additional good information sources. Red Cross is encouraging registration in the Safe and Well program for residents and those who have loved ones in the potentially affected areas.
Warning that Hurricane Gustav is the "mother of all storms," Mayor Ray Nagin late Saturday ordered a mandatory evacuation of the West Bank of New Orleans for 8 a.m. Sunday and the east bank for noon.
