I think Ike is going to hit Brazil.
I didn't pay enough attention back in the day when we were being taught probability theory in math class. However, I find it a bit odd that the Cone of Idiocy didn't even have Houston in the mix a few days ago, but now has it dead-center. The same thing happened with Gustav. Cone of Idiocy initially showed a Florida (non-Panhandle strike), then they just widened it to include everything between Pensacola and Corpus Christi.
