This is probably the final advisory on any tropical system for this season and what a season it was.

Ya, I hope it's over too. I have to say that your President Bush Jr. and FEMA are getting raked over the coals in their inability to get help there in a timely manner after all the glowing reports about FEMA. Very sad.
