A storm (not just a hurricane) could push more oil ashore or wash it farther out to sea. t could even help dissipate the slick. It depends literally on which way the winds blow. Note that New Orleans does not get its drinking water from a source that can be affected by the oil spill.

Gulf Coast residents: What happens if a storm hits the oil spill?

They're predicting a big season, as usual, but I feel uneasy because BP is butt raping the gulf right now. I live near New Orleans, and we're finally getting back on our feet. So what happens if a hurricane comes up this giant oil spill? I mean, I know we'd all be f-cked again, but do you think the government would handle it in an appropriate fashion? Or would they sit on their butts and speculate for a few days before the ship drinkable water out like they did after Hurricane Katrina?
It seems like we can't catch a break.
And I really don't want to hear anything about being stupid for living in a flood zone because disasters happen EVERYWHERE. There are mudslides, flash floods, blizzards, tornadoes, earthquakes, etc. all over the place. At least here we have warning when something's coming. I'd say that's smarter.
