Gustav Now Predicted as a "Direct Hit"

Waiting for this storm is so amazing. You would have no idea that a hurricane is about to spoil our party today. I just awake to see that the storm has shifted south and is now on track to pass right over the island. The government has issued a Hurricane Warning. Everyone is advised to stay at home. We should see 6-12 inches of rain today in Kingston. We might have winds up to 100 MPH. Sounds like a fall storm in Kodiak.

Plans are still in place to swear in this morning at the embassy. Yahoo. We are so excited. Pictures tonight--if we still have electricity!
