re: As of now, no game in Dallas for LSU

Someone I know and trust attends all state emergency meetings and hears the top meteorologists briefings. Basically, the 3-day projected path is very accurate, within less than 100 miles. The 5-day "cone" is much less predictable - thus you have a cone of 300-600 miles sometimes. And between 3-5 days, the projected path is just a center-cut of the entire cone. But because after Katrina FEMA, Homeland Security, etc., wanted a 5-day warning for coastal residents, they are forced to have a 5-day projected path with a wide margin of error. The true path after day 3 is much, much less certain. Don't get hooked on the path line after Wed.
