Evidently Ivan isn’t done wreaking havoc yet.
Ivan’s back and ready for round two with the Gulf Coast.The storm system that tore through southern Alabama as a hurricane last week returned to the Gulf of Mexico as Tropical Depression Ivan and, in Wednesday’s 10 p.m. National Weather Service advisory, was upgraded to a tropical storm.
At press time, Tropical Storm Ivan was about 214 miles south of New Orleans, said Mark Linhares, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Birmingham. It was moving west- northwest at 13 mph and packed maximum sustained winds of 40 mph, with higher gusts to the north and west of the eye.
Linhares said Ivan is expected to remain a tropical storm, although it might strengthen some. It is expected to make landfall around 7 p.m. Thursday, just east of Houston.

That is totally insane. Lets hope it doesn’t strengthen too much more. It’s been a while since Houston got anything like this too.
Hopefully New Orleans will heed the warning and build higher walls or something incase a hurricane comes right at them.
