Here is a quote from CNN on an article related to the potential damages from this storm. In one word, unbelievable!!

Meanwhile, a federally supported computer projection says Hurricane Gustav could cause up to $29.3 billion in property damage when it hits the Gulf Coast.

The software, developed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the National Institute of Building Sciences, also projected Sunday that 4.5 million people will be in the storm's path and 59,953 buildings will be destroyed. The path also ensnares about 170 hospitals and more than 1,100 police and fire stations.
