...Reconnaissance plane about to reach Rita...will determine if it is a hurricane...

I'm surprised she's still a TS. It looks like she might not reach Cat 1 until she enters the gulf. I'd like to consider that reassuring, but Katrina did all of her intensification west of Key West.

Thunder and lightning finally starting here in Cutler Ridge, between Miami and Homestead. A big blast just now, like an explosion, and my lights dimmed. Hope I don't get knocked offline. Conditions look good for waterspouts right now.
