Yes...My state is on the gulf coast and I'm not taking any risks...It'll totally annihilate New Orleans if it hit here..I'm praying it doesn't....I KNOW its going to turn upward and hit the US I just have that feeling.

Not yet, but keep tuning in to the weather channel for updates.
Hurricane watches were issued at 11 pm AST August 15 (0300 UTC August 16) for St. Lucia, Martinique, Saba, St.
Eustatius, and Guadeloupe and its dependencies. At this time a tropical storm watch was also issued for St. Maarten.] Hurricane warnings were later issued at 5 am AST (0900 UTC) August 16 for the islands of Dominica and St. Lucia, and a tropical storm warning was issued for Barbados as Dean approached the Lesser Antilles.
Both of St. Lucia's commercial airports were closed on August 16. The main airport in Martinique closed as well; authorities in the island set up shelters and canceled a memorial to the victims of West Caribbean Airways Flight 708. In Dominica, a dozen and a half tourists were evacuated to concrete shelters.
Transocean evacuated 11 "nonessential" workers late on August 15 from an oil rig located about 160 miles (260 km) southeast of New Orleans. The company left about 125 personnel on board the structure.
The government in Dominica cancelled leave for emergency service personnel, while Prime Minister of Jamaica Portia Simpson-Miller convened an emergency meeting of Jamaica's national disaster preparedness council.
