Where will gulf oil spill hit in Mexico?
 
Okay, I've googled, yahooed, asked and all I can find is where the gulf oil spill will hit on the US coast. But I'm trying to find out if/when/where the spill will reach the Mexican Coast, specifically Cancun. Anyone have any clue where I can get this info (from a reliable source, please)? Thanks!

Thank you for the link. Unfortuately, while a great site and highly informative, if it said something about the Mexican coastline, I missed it. I can't believe it won't hit there as well. I just need to know approximate areas that scientists think will be hit (have some friends that live there and they can't get any info about the oil spill other than what affects the LA coast).

The map in the paper seems to indicate that it is very close to the Louisiana coast line. It appears to be moving north and East as opposed to Mexico.

Here is one satellite picture I found:
