Re: Rita

Just heard [CNN] that the oil companies are closing down/evacuating their rigs in the Gulf as I type. On a hunch, I filled up this AM at $2.80 a gallon. I understand it's gone to $3.00 since then. Prepare thyselves, children, the uncertainty and chaos will continue.

WFAA says this thing might hit the Texas coast then hook North our way. Come
on baby, no one else wants ya and we could use 4-6" of rain right now. No
twirlies though.

Just checked the 11 AM projection of Rita's path. Of course, really
can't tell much until it gets into the Gulf, but it now looks headed to
Galveston Bay. The Gulf is still so bloody warm that it will likely be
another major storm by the time it gets to wherever it's going.

Yes, Kitty, 18 named tropical storms is about 150 percent of a typical
bad year. And NOAA says maybe at least two storms after Rita. TV
weather guys are beginning to explain that after we reach Zeke [or
whatever the Z name is] NOAA will start naming them after the Greek
alphabet--Alpha, Beta, etc.
