You know my friend offered his home on the island of NC to a evac family (it's sweet btw), and no one answered. I told him maybe they were fed up with water right then. Here comes the hurricane right after to SC and up.
I really liked the commercials TWC used to have. I've said it before but I wish they would show the babies. We see the moms growing for nine months and then they are back in their suits, business as usual.
Is it just me, or does it look like it s now going more of a NW track ?
Thanks again. Rita will rival Katrina, but I just can't see her challenging either Gilbert or Tip.
Katrina reached 902 I think.
I do not know, but I noticed before the 2004 election.. When Fox News thought Kerry was going to win all of sudden they were on Bush.. I can't point out an example but I do remember getting really upset about it.. However, after the election they slipped back a little bit.
Sorry if this is a repetitive question, but where are you located?
Prayer? At this point, I don't think anything else will.
You are correct. I'm getting ready to do just that.
LOL. I've been impressed by Texas since I was 10 years old.
My kid was at his piano lesson, and then traveled up the interstate to church and I just called him to see how it was on the interstate.
Even yesterday I was getting bounced around.
Holy Moly, just glad that thing isn't headed our way.
Prayers for those in her path.
Recon data from Texas A & M site:

For station, type NHC. Select Raw Data, and scroll down to Reconnaisance. It'll display all data the recon sends in.
Tampa Bay
PRAYER--and lots of it!
I thought they had postponed this due to Katrina? Guess they changed their minds and decided to cash in on these storms.
Duly noted. I still think high SSTs are overrated for contributions to major hurricanes in comparison to other favorable conditions such as the utter and total absence of sheer or dry air interfering. Rita is firmly in command of the Gulf. Even if we get "lucky" and it weakens to say Cat 3 before landfall the storm surge is still going to be prodigious if it spins around out there as a cat 5 for any length of time.
It may have just been coincidence, but when NO was being flooded, my Alltel service up here in nebraska got real flaky....even more than normal...
Friday is the feast of St. Pio (Padre Pio). Catholics should be praying fervently for his intercession since the hurricane may make landfall late on Friday.
