Rita now Cat 3 per Fox. Fox news alerts are making me nervous.

Cat 3 - still packing a huge punch, but much better than a Cat 5.
To: Knitting A Conundrum
Is that a good (relatively--of course) place for landfall?

second breach of the levee near the Industrial Canal has occurred, though officials said they haven't been able to get to the site to examine it.
12:42 P.M. - WWL-TV pictures show water overwhelming the Lower Ninth ward with waters rushing into streets and homes. Officials said they believe no one remains in that area.

I was in Picayune, MS last weekend helping with the cleanup. Didn't see a single mosquito. Tons of "Love Bugs" though. Had to stop twice on the way back to clean the windshield.
Maybe I got too excited about what looks like sognificant weakening, nice trend though. :) If it holds.

That eye size what the NOAA hunters found in their latest trip in (eye fix at noon; satellite pic was at 11:45 am). While the eye is becoming less apparent on the satellite, it's still around across on the
Lake Charles radar

You said:I was almost expecting him to ask that idiot reporter if he was stuck on stupid. I really wish he had!
I said: It's President Bush's MO is to stay above the fray and let the journalists look like the fools that they are. It's General Honore's MO to throw out the S.O.S's to let the journalists look like the fools that they are.
I add:Which is not to say President Bush wasn't thinking it.
To: sheikdetailfeather
Please DON'T be lulled into thinking this is "only" a category 3 storm now! As with Katrina, the storm surge of this hurricane is already developed at a Category 4 level and will be huge. There is very little difference between sustained winds of 125 (Category 3) and 135 (Category 4) mph in terms of damage to trees and buildings. Anything over 100 mph is very, very bad.
