Andrew, the feds aren't running the show, BP has yet to cap the leak therefore any weather system that hits the area is going to make a total mess of the coast line and destroy even more of the eco system. They have 2 ships syphoning the oil, and they would have to leave the area if the storms were to hit. It's not up to the feds to clean it up it is BP's responsibility. The feds are there to make sure they do, but the feds don't have any technology to do this, i.e.: the Navy, or Coast Guard.
