Yup matches up with the other graph I just put up. Screw it. I am getting out of dodge tomorrow.

It's true that's a corrupt gif (as I'm posting) but I noticed several hours ago that Rita took a more abrupt turn to the northwest than the forecast track would indicate. More importantly, you can check out several of the
leading models here, and they are in fact now veering toward the TX-LA border.

Good Morning NautiNurse --
If you have a ping-list for these Hurricane Rita Live Threads, please add me to it.
Thanx for all your hard work keeping these threads running (and reasonably sane :) )

Significant, indeed.
It puts Houston proper on the west side of the eye. . . but a heck of a lot closer to it.

Well, that model map covers all of Houston metro, the rest of coastal LA not affected by Katrina, and most of the offshore oil and gas ops. Did I niss anything?

PS. The XTRP line on that map, is a direct line in the direction that the hurricane is moving at that time. Based on this
radar loop it seems that it should now be pointing up near Galveston. In other words, it seems the trajectory is turning swiftly. That being said, it's hard to be sure because it's only the last two or three frames and they flash by quick..

Thanks for the tip. I will probably leave late Thursday night or very early Friday morning. Too much traffic on the roads right now. Besides, the storm seems to be heading north, so we may be able to stay here after all.
To: dogbyte12
Get out. Seems to me that these things have a way of swinging east just before landfall.
Katrina did it. So did Ivan, if I recall right.
I, too, noticed a more northerly track on the satellite, than the NHC had predicted it would continue west for awhile longer.

We are SO gonna get whacked.
